This is what some surprise that we see today a number of unrelated security/software issues converging around the end of March. This is what I got today; Chilling.
- Just out of the box, the AMD-ATI Catalyst 7.3 drivers for the Radeon graphics cards happen to have a big bad bug that may randomly crash Vista right at boot time [1].
- Animated cursors in Windows XP SP2 create a security issue for users of Internet Explorer version 6 or 7. No solution yet at Microsoft. [2]
- It may not be a bug for all: It appears that there is a way to never activate Windows Vista. [3]
Not the time to rush…

Defensers of AMD-ATI now inform us that the nVidia drivers for Windows VISTA, though late too, produce a lot of BSOD (Blue Screens of Death - the crash blue screen of Windows).
I believe that the difficulty of re-writing completely the drivers for Vista is part of the problem. Even pro developers from AMD and nVidia are unable to fully cope with the huge size of the task.
