On the flipside though, couple of years ago I think, did not some third party announce a flaw and state that they tried to tell MS about it but were being ignored?
Keep in mind that this is coming from a user that has spent at least 4 hours so far - holiday time - cleaning up my kids computer.
Oh, the irony!

Billy G has promised that's not going to happen anymore.
They STILL take way too long to get a fix out.
The problem with MS software, is even if I find a problem I can't fix it or even research it's cause, because there is no access to the source code. Its like buying a car with the Engine compartment welded shut. Might look like a fuel problem, but could be a gummed up carborator, but there is nothing I can do but call the factory and wait for them to fix it.
