I think that this whole case is stupid, I dont like MS any more than the next guy, but its not there fault that some ppl dont have there computers running properly. If MS were to make some type of program similer to AVG or nortan then ppl would complain that there using not being fair, and when they dont include this program like now and leave it to the consumer to secure thier computer then they get slamed for having poor software. And yes MS code sucks but that doesn't mean that ppl cant get linu/Unix/BSD or get a firewall or somthing. People need to pull thier head s out of the sand and look at the reality MS has had a bad rep for this sort of thing for a long time, so if you use it then you know what your getting into. People need to stop blaming MS for everythong and install Linux or buy some scurity apps.
