Let's hear it for the monopolists!

C'mon you Redmond tubthumpers, some spin is desperatly needed in the face of this latest affront to the consumer. It's funny but the free Net-conferencing tool Gnomeeting for Linux doesn't have this problem ... another tool that works malware free on Linux, whereas its Windows counterpart is stuffed with Microsoft specific, digital maggots.

Let's not forget, due to the influenza like commonality of the inferior Windows OS, 90% of all desktop users can now enjoy this latest privacy busting Microsoft malware. Just as they will be able to enjoy tommorrow's exploit, and all those that will - inevitably and certainly - follow.

Not to worry, though, as long as you accepted the Microsoft EULA, Microsoft are completely absolved of any responsibility for this latest drop off. Just make sure you pay your subscription and don't forget to pay the 3rd party anti-virus company and save some more cash for the firewall company, when you buy Microsoft you either pay for all the additional 3rd party propping up the OS needs, or, you crash and burn.

Yeah, Microsoft certainly did bring computing to the masses, didn't they? Thanks to Microsoft, the next pervert coming undetected through your Windows could be webcam enabled hacker.
