Anti MS BS!

Would be nice, just 1 time, when a post on MS comes up that every anti-MS person just ignore it if they have nothing of value to add.

Weird that everyone complains about MS and IE and when MS says they are looking to enhance functionality to address the items, someone finds flaw with them.

I welcome all MS solutions, just as I welcome everyone elses. In the end, the beneficiary is usually the consumer with more choices.

Perhaps because the entire concept of MS anti-spyware tools is a heaping load of self-serving BS? That the "root cause" of the majority of spyware infections, are due to a total failing of MS's much-vaunted "Secure Computing Initiative", and if MS OS were even slightly more secure and had a few less holes than a block of swiss cheese, that most of this would be a moot point already?

I don't buy it that spyware is entirely the fault of the user, because why aren't we therefore seeing more "massive spyware infections" of alternative-browser users? The empirical facts seem to suggest that IE/OE is the primary infection vector.

I also disagree that there are no technical solutions for the user clicking "Yes" to installation of software with embedded malware. There in fact are, it's just that MS refuses to actually implment something that would be useful, but not enable them to make more money or enhance their market share further, thus they do nothing about it.

If you have no useful comments why even post. Go boot to linux or better yet a mac os on your pc gear and go leave the microsoft world. Then you won't have no issues with it.
