To carry this discussion one step further, a law should be enacted that would make it a crime to create an Operating System that would ?so casually? allow a program to insert, overwrite, replace or modify the very OS or software running on that OS that it should be protecting. This is not meant to be a MS bashing discussion but the vulnerabilities here have not been due to apathetic laws?..but due to a systematic approach for OS creation that was short sighted and rushed to market. As an afterthought, as system were compromised, patches were created to fix each problem.
