 It makes you wonder...

...how long a fix would take if the exploit had not been made public. At least now we get a chance to see how fast Microsoft can fix things.

This is what I wonder. What is the incentive to delay making a patch for a problem, known or unknown?

It's already been fixed in SP2. And considering the fact that SP2 is coming out this year, I'll have to disagree with you.

Already there. In fact, the first time I got one of the scam emails and clicked the link trying to fish it out, I thought it was so blatently obvious (because I could see the whole url) that I thought only a moron would fall for it.

A month or so later I saw the scheme behind it posted here and felt bad for all the other uneducated folks out there...
