So, M$ blew another patch job. About the only good news is the problem only affect people with dialup scripts or terminal window connections, and with basic DSL comming down in price those dial-upers must either be bankrupt or [patch]ing slow.

Even so, this [patch] shows problems with M$'s treatment of Win-D'OH-s. First off, why the [patch] does Win-D'OH-s still support dialup? You'd think that after the [patch]ing porn dialers and thier long-distance charges and [patch] that support would be long gone by now. Guess they still have worker bees who need to "phone home" to connect to the net. Not to mention faxes to send, but why use some [patch]ing fax machine that's not even [patch]ing secureable when they can send an encrypted email over a [patch]ing secure channel? That makes me question M$'s own [patch]ing internal data security policy

Secondly, will this support for dialup [patch] continue with Vi$ta? Linux recently cut support for older tech out of its kernel, why the [patch] can't M$ do the same? They've already stopped supporting 98SE and will cut it for XP. Just cut the [patch]ing bloat out of Vi$ta so you don't have so many [patch]ing problems.

Finally, couldn't M$ test the [patch]ing patch before they released this [patch] on their customers? You'd think they learned their lesson when they had to patch a [patch]ing patch that disrupted some HP utilities. Now this [patch]ing [patch] is getting [patch]ing out of [patch]ing control and [pat[patch]patch] [patch] [patch][patch] [patch]ing [pat[patch]] [patch] [p[patch]atc[patch]h][patch][patch][[patch]pa[patch]
