This "kid" showed us more, he showed us that a kid can write a
virus using monad, he showed us that virus writers are going to target
monad, and he showed us that there really isn't anyone at MS who is going
to stop either of these things from happening.

But OK, for you and Rich, after looking into the details, I can't find
where anyone was claiming this wasn't possible, in fact it appears everyone
but MS has been claiming that this is possible and needs to be addressed,
all this kid did was remove any doubt.
