If Microsoft had its way, you could be prosecuted for disseminating this.

No, they would outlaw stupidity. Boy, are you screwed...

Carefull what you wish for...MS has done some awfull stupid things.

They should replace the default paste message handlers for any controls that are part of an app that will be running as admin (frequently SQL server for example). Short of that they need to build a mechanism for checking callback addresses (no callbacks across application boundries, which should be verboten to begin with).

Why don't you just admit that the Win32 API was never designed for a multi-user environment and no one should be using it as such?

As a matter of fact, Dude, Microsoft believes that bugs should not be publicized.

If ignorance is bliss, you must be in heaven.
