Re: Blaming the User: MS & WMP Adware Installations

I got an email from Chris Pirillo with this link:

Tomorrow's live broadcast, starting at 7PM PST (-08:00 GMT), will feature an interview with Mike Coleman - official spokesperson for Microsoft's Windows Media Digital Rights Management. We went straight to the pachinko-addict for the answers, some of which will surprise you.
That's Thursday night.

Pachinko
04:58PM (PST) on January 19, 2005
Growing up, my dad had a Pachinko machine in the basement. My brothers and I used to play with it all the time. It didn't have any fancy lights, but... I still remember the sound of those pachinko balls flipping and flopping down the front of the game board. Tomorrow's live broadcast, starting at 7PM PST (-08:00 GMT), will feature an interview with Mike Coleman - pachinko-addict and spokesperson for the recent debacle on DRM. Now, if you've never played pachinko, it's kinda like pinball - only vertical with smaller metal spheres. I guess there's a restaurant here in Seattle that has tons of pachinko machines in it?

And for those of you who want to know who all these people are at Microsoft you can also go back to the Links on the Beta Testing for WMP10...Chris was very active in that effort as I recall.

Re: Blaming the User: MS & WMP Adware Installation


Cool tip, PentiumIII See Profile ! Thank you. A little too much surgery for my tastes, but I were in a long-term situation where IE was the only browser, I'd use it (or go mad).

Re: Blaming the User: MS & WMP Adware Installations

Well, B I was not concerned about the surgery, but wondered what the result would be to get Critical Updates as ActiveX is a requirement. Pentium111, did you try it?

Cheers
