No, there are prior incidents, but I don't think this one has been mentioned.
It's all on the Web.
The purpose of these posts is to show that while Microsoft boasts security,
security in Vista has already been broken (several times even) before its
release. As I prediated many months ago, off-the--shelf Vista is not secure.
It requires patching. It's XP all over again.
