Oh I agree...M$ has really screwed up on this one, in terms of making a lot of innoncents feel accused. That was the same negative sentiment with the Winbloze Genuine Advantage goofs. Tons of resentment towards them, just like Intuit, for their "anti-piracy" stuff. On their side of the fence, did their numbers rise, hinting that their anti-piracy measures worked effectively to yield more official sales I wonder? _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
