Had it been a security flaw I would have looked for a security list and posted atleast twice. With this bug, I posted, gave it sometime, and went to bugtraq cause I figured it wouldn't be a big deal and maybe someone on that list would know something I didn't. Glad it's fixed, and thanks for the info.
