Possible Good Samaritan Brian West of Oklahoma was using MS FrontPage when he learned (inadvertently, he claims) that he could gain privileges on the local Poteau Daily News Web site without authentication. After bringing this gaffe to the paper's attention, he got into a bit of hot water with the Feds for 'exceeding authorization' on the machine. Now West's lawyers are claiming that Microsoft's bugware is to blame for the whole incident.
