You've got your facts all mixed up.
MBlaster and Sasser were built by examining security updates released by Microsoft.
For years Microsoft has released criticals long before any such exploit has been populated
on the Web.

there are also a wide array of holes/exploits that have been found where the user
has no knowledge of what's happening, and thus is unable to prevent whatever malicious
activities are going on
Your mixing a little facts with a bunch of confusion again. Your referring to Blaster and Sasser
exploits again. The critical fixes for them were available long before the exploit was
used on the Web. The only people who got hit with that shit were the lamers who
don't update their Windows XP/2000.

Well since YOU said so then I guess it must be true (Bullshit).
