..how about the impact of Microsoft's new EULA lured in with the 
Windows Media Player security patch ?  I came across this in 
'news:microsoft.public.security' and 'news:comp.security.firewalls'.

..details in http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/25956.html 

..my understanding of this, is that FlightGear is a such "3'rd party"
software, that Microsoft may _legally_ remove from your pc, once you 
have accepted their new EULA.  

..I ask you to back up FG sources and keep it out of harms way, ie:
_not_ on a Wintendo box that can be accessed by Microsoft, _nor_ on 
any dual booting box that boots Wintendo and may be accessed by
Microsoft. 

..I don't mind further FG development for Wintendo, however I 
_do_mind_ losing _any_ of the good work done by you guys this far.

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
