Microsoft Warns... What an Oxymoron (* GRIN *)
First of all... this is nothing new. Those whom are serious about their programming know better. Those whom decide to program around Microsoft's OS... (* HMMMMM *) makes one wonder some time... (* LOL *)

Attacking popular games are nothing really new. The threats and the hackers have been around for ages... they're just starting to file their nails... (* GRIN *)

Thus as far as for Microsoft's warning... they should have done that about 5 or 6 years ago... but they waited until today to give such warnings.
