Researcher working on stronger Vista attack

Joanna Rutkowska, the security researcher who revealed her Blue Pill attack for Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system earlier this year, now says she's working on a version which is undetectable. Her attack uses chip virtualization tricks. She said the antidote is obvious--move Vista's kernel memory paging, code and drivers into main memory--and she said it's a mystery why Microsoft has not already done that. Microsoft officials said there is still time for it.
