Default Re: XPS - Cross Printer Scripting Exploit

Ok that's it! I'm selling my computer business and going to work in the food services industry!
Well, on second thought, many companies are switching away from networked printers to desktop printers due to convince and low cost. But there are many situations where that is not practical.
Hope there is a fix soon in the Windows Update so I can justify ignoring this threat.

Just a note: I suspect this threat was created by those people that want to sell me ink and toner cartridges.

On a more serious note, shouldn't we as an industry be moving people towards being a paperless society. I email my customers invoices & statements in PDF format. If I need a permanent copy I burn them to DVD-RW. Oh, and while I am at it. What's up with the continued use of FAX machines!? WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY. Those things are embarrassingly out dated.
