Is it something more benign like behaviour within Chrome/Chromium itself? From what I remember latest Edge is based on Chromium.

RIP Sir Clive Sinclair: British home computer trailblazer dies aged 81
RIP
Had a ZX81 then was given a QL for my 10th birthday. Got into SuperBASIC and then assembly. Remember using the various issues of QL World to work out how to compile stuff from the assembly programs that included the hex on the side. Definitely kept me entertained. Been in IT ever since. Not doing so much in assembly these days.

TeamViewer denies hack after PCs hijacked, PayPal accounts drained
Teamviewer does tend to stop your screen locking after X minutes of activity. We've found this at work when enforcing screen locking via group policy.
Also, peeps haven't noted that some instances of Teamviewer Quick Support have a default insecure password. This is when the user just sees 4 stars/dots instead of a random password.

Re: I kinda like W8 Pro
I'm the same. I have Win 8 Pro on my laptop at home and desktop at work. Being not much of a mouse user I'm finding that hitting Start and typing the first one or two characters of the program I need works really well. Search results remember your more popular choices. Get the same on Server 2012 as well.

Microsoft Windows Server 2012: Why Bother?
As a Linux fan ...
... I have been using Linux virtualisation for years. Had to migrate from Xen to KVM last year when Ubuntu 8.04 LTS had issues with its implementation of Xen.
However I am now planning a migration to Hyper-V on Server 2012 next year. I have been very impressed with 2012, apart from the loss of the Start button. Was actually surprised to find I am having to do things in Powershell rather than use a GUI.
I also like the way i was able to use Server Manager to deploy a Remote Desktop Services environment across multiple servers.
