 From another fairly trusted mailing list:

	Hi, all.

	It appears that the NSA has a backdoor in all copies of WinXX.

	Article: http://www.cryptonym.com/hottopics/msft-nsa.html

	Talk about *zero* security on the 'Net!  Sheesh.

Question:

	It is infowar (technical) by the NSA?
	It is infowar (perception) by NSA's detractors?
	Is it infowar at all?
