whoopee!. Bleh. Really a security issue? Same
thing happens if you have show
windows content enabled and you drag around a
window, as long as your
dragging the window, the cpu will remain close to
100 % usage. Significant?

Probably not directly, but possibly indirectly.

The questions are, of course:

1) Is the 100% cycle sucking done as a pre-emptible
thing, or can you
cpu-starve something else using it?

2) Is there some *other* security-related API that
botches incorrectly if it's
cpu-starved?

No, unless its proof of some shoddy coding of
some-sort.

A hammer is a useful tool for finding 
non-impact-resistant screws......
