People have tried to do too much at once. It was like trying to eat a whole elephant in one go.

It got to the point where there was panic over nothing. But don't panic, it's not going to smash anybody.

We saw [Smash] a few weeks ago and have had protection from it for a while. But what started happening is a couple of the minor anti-virus players in Europe made a fuss about it, even though it's not in the wild. And now it's gotten to the point where we are getting calls from our clients and they were asking what's going on.

This is a significant loss to Microsoft, both in their reputation as well as the damage that it could cause them with their future product getting out into the wrong hands.

I can say with absolute confidence that the vast majority of those corporations do not know that they have been breached.
