Microsoft Chairman & CEO Bill Gates has announced that all future Microsoft press releases will be handled by the Real Estate Writers of America. "These guys know how to accurately portray things without the hype" said Gates, "This should help reveal Microsoft as the leader in security, not a gaping security pitfall."
This comes just hours after a fast spreading worm was discovered which takes advantage of a security flaw in the Microsoft Windows operating system.
When questioned, the Real Estate Writers of America responded on behalf of Microsoft with the following statement;
"A firewallers delight! A security enhancement opportunity has been identified in the Microsoft Windows operating system today. This vulnerability will quickly become a favorite of coders everywhere; who will relish the chance to get into this sprawling fixer-upper. Great for kids and adults alike, who will love the shared memory pool, and the open-concept design to this old chestnut. Visit http://www.windowsupdate.com/security
