The BRS episode is being reported in some places, weirdly, as Microsoft foiling Blaster, while
more imaginative and hopeful beings have concluded that in an exercise of quite awesome cynicism
The Beast simply moved the whole Windows Update shooting match over to a Linux host. Whatever
anybody says, that one's sufficiently tempting to run and run, despite the fact that engineering
such a switch would likely involve the dismantling of much of the Windows Update infrastructure.
(No really, it is an infrastructure, sort of...)
