A number of popular tech news sources are reporting Trend Micro's CTO, Raimund Genes, publicly claiming that there are "auctions" for zero-day Windows Vista exploits. Further, he claims these auctions are fetching approx $50,000.
Could anyone verify Trend Micro's claim?
It seems dubious, at best, to me and possibly nothing more than pure FUD.
Sorry to get off topic.

This could also be some covert way for microsoft to find their own vulnerabilities. That has happened before.
