I bet this is actually an NSA 'backdoor' put in my MS, so if they confiscate your xbox, they'll be able to get in easily if you dont give your p-word to them so they can see all your terririzor links to Al-kinda-but-not-really-associatedness. Thats if the waterboarding doesnt force you to give up your password first*
*Please note: That was sarcasm.
Id be more concerned if the father was using the xbox's ki***ic as a form of photo-password and the kid got into his dads account that way. Now that'd be an interesting headline: "Boy shows xbox his willy - gets free games".

Great story....not sure about the 'feet not touching the ground" part but great nevertheless. Smart kid.

It's funny that they gave him such a small reward since he's a child. I don't know Microsoft's policies on payments for security, but I've been paid upwards of $1,500 for single reports by Facebook.

That's funny, I thought M$ was being run by a bunch of 5 year olds what with that Windows 8 fruity pebbles interface

A lot more. But I've seen other reports where a critical flaw was found and they tried to skimp out of payment.

I bet it was the father and not the child!

So mashing the space bar wins him a prize, smart kid, maybe we can give him an award for excellence in participation just for showin up.
