Cryptovirus has been looking for and reporting issues he finds on his own without compensation.  The fixes, once rolled into IPB, benefit all of our customers (especially since he seems to be focusing on security-related things).  Personally, I'm happy for him to look through the code and report any problems he finds so we can continue to deliver a secure, stable software for all of our customers.
Exactly.  Which is why I appreciate his efforts.  He could be like some others who have that knack, who go out and use it for the amusement it brings them when they cause grief for others.  Instead, he finds the flaws and points them out so that the products are improved overall.  I'm glad that he's doing it to help others, rather than hurt them.  Not only that, but he's also easy to get along with and so far does his best to not abuse/mis-use flaws that he finds.
