Because I thought I'd never be affected either. It was quite a long time ago now, and was so well covered at the time that I didn't imagine anybody would be using that particular release for very long. Am I wrong? Are people still running that buggy release? I understand there's something similar in one of the 7.x releases, but I don't know if it's the *same* npused bug. If you get a definitive answer, send me some email and you can be assured it *will* end up in the FAQ.
