It really would have been cool if they had a big screen behind the guy and demonstraited the hack while he was on stage. Chuckle, snort! |

Guy Speaking: "And IE is so wonderfully secure!"
Other Guy: "Um, excuse me sir, I hate to interrupt your speech but we have an important video feed to show right now. This is the latest news from pwn2own."
*video plays*
*crowd laughs and speaker sheepishly walks off stage* |

I wonder why they didn't include a linux computer this year... |

theboomboomcars: Because this year only browserbugs count. OS bugs do not count. That's what the blog says anyway. |

I heard that this hack actually occured *before* IE8 was officially released. |

Sander, oh, so they've invented browsers that don't need operating systems? |
| Sander_Marechal Mar 20, 2009 4:08 PM CST |
TC, just paraphrasing the PWN2OWN blog... |
| caitlyn Mar 20, 2009 4:53 PM CST |
tuxchick: IE8 is a browser with the operating system built-in, doncha know? |
| caitlyn Mar 20, 2009 5:12 PM CST |
Oh, and why is this thread called "Frist Giggle"? What does Bill Frist or anything related to politics have to do with hacking web browsers? Just curious. |

Sander, I know, it makes the whole event seem rather silly. Though I still enjoy IE8 going down at the first huff :) |

caitlyn: It's the way to get around the "^[Ff]irst .*$" filter. |

Hot grits! |

Quoting:Though I still enjoy IE8 going down at the first huff :) Reminds me of a quote by Groucho Marx Quoting:You can leave in a cab. Or you can leave in a huff. Or you can leave in a minute and a huff. |
