Gerald, Yes, shame on ms for breaking xp, the best ever operating system ever. And all for filthy lucre.
Now does anyone know how to get rid of the ribbon feature?

So there is no reason to switch to another anti-virus program right away if you are satisfied with MSE. Shame on MS for engaging in scare tactics to frighten XP users into upgrading to Windows 8.
