Common Windows problems could soon be solved by clicking a "Fix It" button. Microsoft has started putting the button on its web-based support pages that detail the most common problems hitting PC and Windows users. Clicking the button kicks off a download that, once run, carries out the series of steps needed to fix a specific problem or remove a bug. Microsoft also has plans to extend the click-to-fix system to help users recover from a crash.

So now hundreds of millions of clueless sheep^W^W windows users will grow accustomed to running "scripts" that come from the *internet* and with *full admin privileges* as long as (they can believe that) those scripts are coming from "holy MS"?
I 'm sure there must be *huge* blackkhat parties all over the globe as we speak :-)
