Post Content
There is no "ADVAPI" dll in my xp,

but there is

'advapi32.dll'.

I'm sure they're talking about the same key though.





Could deleting thing fix the exploit?



Anybody tried that yet?

Dont delete it, switch OS if you fear it.
FreeFlow The files are encrypted, so the coding is safe, or else everybody could make their own copy of it, and mod it to their wish, sell it and make profits, so, encryption.

Also, the NSAKEY was only in one version, where a scripter/programmer "forgot" to remove the debug tags. IT's not searchable, as it is nopt supposed to be there after public launch, it only for convience when debugging during alpha and beta testing.

Anyone who wants them can look at the debug files. Microsoft knew that along with millions of their programmers, there is nothing special about "British researcher Dr Nicko van Someren" so it is bullshit to say they were trying to keep it hidden. BTW, China would not be buying any Microsoft software if this story is true, but they are buying it by the boatload.
