Open source makes Vista more secure
,----[ Quote ]
| An Open Source security feature is being used by Microsoft to protect its
| new super soar-away operating system, Vista, from buffer overrun exploits.
|
| The feature, called Address Space Layout Randomization (ALSR) has been
| sneaked under the bonnet of Windows Vista Beta 2 as part of a larger plan
| to make it more difficult to automate attacks against the operating
| system.
