Re. WindowsXP, there is a little debate going on between a security analyst
and Microsoft.
http://grc.com/dos/sockettome.htm <http://grc.com/dos/sockettome.htm>
Microsoft posted a response on their web site, on the security page.
I don't know who is right in all this.

Has anyone heard of all the troubles that the new version of
Microsoft is
having getting released ??
One of the ugliest things I see is their new licensing scheme. They
make
sure you are using it only on a specific machine by having its
functionality
based on hardware items on your system. This configuration has to
be
registered either by phone or by internet about a month after it is
installed or everything stops working. If you change something big,
like a
Network Card or cpu chip, your system will not boot because it
thinks you
have installed it on a different machine.
Anyone have options on the new XP ?
