Silly "*****", tricks are for kids
Why limit the functions of your system and jump through all those hoops? I guess your loved ones can't email a picture or file to you as an attachment. No one will ever prevent people from doing stupid things, so why can't ms have built in precautions to prevent these things (virri) from happening? You obviously are very good at securing your system, do you believe the average user can implement all the steps you do?
