| Microsoft Anti-Spyware Microsoft wants me to stop using Spybot Search and Destroy and start using a spyware program from a software company that has been plagued by security issues for years. Bill Gates has diversifying into so many software and internet projects in the last five years that it looks to me like he lost touch in his core business which was computer platforms. Why get into another avenue of internet security when he still can't fix the security problems with Windows. -- Dslreports.com Forum No-Spin zone starts here. »www.antihotmail.com spammers_are_scumbags@antihotmail.com |

 | See you obviously have no ideal what you are talking about. Every OS has security flaws, when you write software that huge its impossible for there to not be any flaws. Your blind if you think OSX and the flavors of linux don't have security flaws. |

No, because Windows XP was suppose to better in security when Microsoft first introduced it to the public. Each new platform should be better in security then it's successor. I never said that any version of Windows was or should be one hundred percent free of exploits or vulnerabilities.
Internet users shouldn't be installing huge service packs when these problems should have been found and fixed during development or when beta testing was being done. Small critical updates are fine by me , but service packs show the lack of any type of internet security foresight by Microsoft. -- Dslreports.com Forum No-Spin zone starts here. »www.antihotmail.com spammers_are_scumbags@antihotmail.com |

| First off a platform is the underlying technology x86 or x86-64 or maybe alpha in these cases.
The OS is not a platform. It's made by man and has a lot of code it can not all be perfect and since they have to make the OS compatible to older apps as well they have to hack the code to work right.
Service packs are needed because the OS is not the most secure in the world and neither is any other. Linux patches it's kernel quite frequently. But by your statement that "service pack" is stupid and linux should be held to the same standard.
Get real and open your eyes ,from a programmers point of view and understand the underlying technology, Until a actual coder can step up and say anything the rest of the comments here are moot and null. Only software developers know the difficulty of writing bug free code. and any of them who say they have written anything bug free there first time bigger then a "hello world" app on the first shot is flat out lying. -- "It's always funny until someone gets hurt......and then it's absolutely friggin' hysterical!" |

 | trying to use logic with these MS trolls doesn't work too well.
They all believe they are right and no matter what MS SUXORS or whatever they say. They can't understand the logistics behind writing such a massive OS and the implications of having to code for millions of users on millions of different machines running apps ranging form the bleeding edge to the most legacy apps imaginable not to mention the most knowledgable to the most retarded.
They don't undertand it is impossible to have foresight when the internet changes from day today and they forget that apps like firefox which has just reached a 1.0 release has had several security patches and that linux god bless its heart! is no where near as complex as windows and doesn't have to be due to its market share.
I bet if you put half these trolls back into the "old" days they would shit themselves and beg for windows. They also forget the user is the MAJORITY of the problem and an educated user has no worries when it comes to their PC. |

Old days? Do you mean DOS? (Disk Operating System). Or do you mean the old days of machine languages like Fortran , Cobol or Assembly? --

| reply to BosstonesOwn Assembly.
I remember coding data base search functions in pure asm. Then watching them wipe out the network stack buffer on a good day. -- "It's always funny until someone gets hurt......and then it's absolutely friggin' hysterical!" |
