"So now, when we face a choice between adding features and resolving security issues, we need to choose security," Gates wrote. Calling the initiative "Trustworthy Computing," the founder of Microsoft kicked off extensive code reviews to catch potential problems in the company's flagship software.

Coming two weeks after the memo, the current slipup spotlights the sheer amount of work that Microsoft needs to accomplish to make its software trustworthy.

A little more than a week ago, gamers had problems connecting to the Microsoft Network owing to a glitch with the company's Passport log-in service. In August, Microsoft patched a hole in Hotmail that could allow a person's e-mail to be read by others.

But the current problem is considered more of a privacy hiccup than a major problem, the Microsoft representative said.

After Microsoft releases the fixed version, MSN Messenger users will receive notification when they start up the application that the new software is ready for download.

"The level of risk is considered low," the Microsoft representative said.

Burton agreed. "I wouldn't say it is as serious as people have taken it," he said. "I don't think it is being actively exploited."

This is a nice mod. I used to play it a lot back then. I've moved on to True Combat though. A much more polished and realistic mod. I recommend it to hardcore Urban Terror fans. The newbies should stick to Urban Terror though.
