and it would count as an exploit for each one of them. That's my point,
there are "Windows" exploits that only affect XP. I didn't need
to patch anything when they went public because I've got no exposed XP
machines. I still counted the component being exploited as a
"windows" component though because it's included in one version
of windows.
