That was just a simple question. AFAIK they DO for some vunerabilities: do
you remember IIS issue (MS99-047) discovered by eeye years ago? Well the
Acknowledgments display credit. Same for most of the latest security bultins
as displayed http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/: MS03-015 etc...

The question is not fame or whatever you call it, just a question about
selective Acknowledgments from ms.

My 2 cents,
