Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Wanna bet...
That it works?

Or that is doesn't work either?

My gut (and boy oh boy what a gut it is) tells me when one happens, the other will soon follow in a form of a "mandatory update" to the OS.

This is gonna get WAY MORE UGLY before it gets better. And not due to the "current" spy/adware writers, nor the competeing scumware cleaners.

No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp|source]
New Doubtful that it works.
First of all, they'd need someone else to copy wouldn't they? None of the others work.

Second, the ownership and distribution of this thing has been tracked in detail. VX2 is currently being developed by a marketing company in New York with 100 employees and backed by millions in venture capital from well known technology venture capital firms.

The distribution of the current version has been tracked through a number of servers that hand off to each other, including one in Russia (just a relay) and ends up in Canada under the ownership of a couple of Canadians well known for Internet scum.

No, Microsoft's anti-spyware is a move of desperation. By some counts they've already lost 30% of the browser market to FireFox. The main reason is spyware/adware/malware. With the failure of Passport and now this, their plans to own the Internet are crumbling. They have to stop the browser erosion or they won't get the chance to try again.

New Re: Wanna bet...
I'm not really a gambling man which is why most of the computers here that were infected w/ spyware now have IE disabled

Today’s program has been sponsored by the physical act of gulping. For thousands of years, gulping has been there for human beings when they needed an expressive gesture of the throat. Whether you want to indicate nervousness about an upcoming test or appointment, fear of the Faceless Old Woman Who Secretly Lives in Your Home, or you just want to ingest milk faster than with regular swallowing, gulping is the way to go! Forget sweating, never mind shivering! Sneezing? Ugh! When you think physical actions, think gulping! Gulp now and receive a complimentary prize package, which will be conveniently buried in an unmarked spot somewhere in the Scrublands. Find it, and it’s yours!
