So what if Microsoft put a warning label on all copies of Windows that said something to the tune of "Not intended for use without firewall and anti-virus software installed" ? :) Isn't the consumer at least partially responsible for reasonable precautions?

Something like, "This software is not guaranteed to do anything in particular." ;-) -- Joe Yao ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message is not an official statement of OSIS Center policies.
