That IS a problem.

Unless I'm missing something, it's a different problem.

This isn't directly connected with the spyware thing, unless they're both under an umbrella of gross incompetence.

***update

I did NOT read the blog in it's entirety as I believed I had.
Here's our major players:
1: Rob Harles, the Senior VP for Sears' SHC
2: Benjamin Googins senior researcher for CA Anti-Spyware

The history, all have read by now.
On 12/22 RH publishes a retort - I posted a portion above.
BG counters by posting screenshots that disprove all of RH's posting, point-by-point.
I find a response by RH on 12/29 at this link...
»community.ca.com/blogs/securitya···ity.aspx
RH largely restates his previous postings, but offers no evidence to any of his claims.
BG responds by illuminating said lack of evidence.

The tally as of today
CA-Blog - Benjamin Googins - 3 points
Sears SHC - Rob Harles - 1 point, but suffers 1 point penalty for unsubstantiated claims.

Rob Harles appears to have the ball, but is refusing to make a run with it or even make any plays at this point.

It's not looking good for Sears.

And - yuk - I appear to be praising CA in some minor way.
