Don't be obtuse, I'm talking about MS rating vulns in their products and =
using multiple exploits to root a machine. If an MS vuln requires you go =
to a hostile website for it to be able to exploit you, sending you to =
that website is trivial via other exploits like using a pdf file = included
in an email. PDF files are not generally thought of as a = threat, people
email them to each other all the time.

As for my eeye claim, there are still 5 remote code execution exploits =
listed on their "unpublished" page that have not been patched, of
the = ones announced this month, there were 4, one of which is media player
9 = exploit that will affect even xpsp2. It's trivial to make a pdf file =
play a movie, it's a feature, the pdf can even contain the trojaned avi =
file. (ohhh, perhaps I should mention that to eeye..)
