Microsoft Anti Spyware review

As expected, nothing but junk from our friends at MS.

That's one reason why I hate microsoft. They are very aggressive, using every dirty trick in the book to wipe out its competition. And when they finally do manage to pretty much monopolize the market (they leave impotent weaken opponents so they can claim they aren't a monoply) then they just pretty much end any effot to improve their product.

For example, Nescape had a great browser called Netscape Navigator. Everybody used it. Everyone was happy. And Netscape was always seeking to improve their browser. Then came Microsoft with Internet Explorer. Both programs were frequesnt;y updated. Each company trying to give us a better product than the other company. But IE was bundled with MS WIndows and then it became built INTO windows. All of a sudden, Navigator developed mysterious incompatibilities with Microsoft OS systems. By the time the courts came in and forced MS to halt its practices, Netscape went belly up and was bought out.

Now Internet Explorer is the prefered tool for hackers and virus makers. It has tons of security holes. And they pretty much never release upgrades to the program.

Thank God Sony and Nintendo are in japan. Cause XBOX would do the same for console gaming that IE did for browsers. And that's why I won't get an XBOX.

My best friend got an XBOX for her son. It lasted all of two months before it went up in smoke.
