Re: Blaming the User: MS & WMP Adware Installation

M$ is out of touch with reality and trying to shift their problem as a burden onto the users.

It might be reasonable for M$ expect the security conscious people here (and the security paranoid) to understand and catch the deception presented via Windows Media Player's Security warning, but not the other 99% of the Windows users. The simple fact is Windows OS and the tied in Apps (IE, WMP) are targeted towards the general public as non-professional consumers and you can't expect them to know when a trusted application is actually presenting a bogus "verified" certificate.
