Microsoft distances self from IE 8 puke ads Apparently, puking about porn was too much for Microsoft's delicate sensibilities on Internet Explorer 8. Microsoft has distanced itself from an ad fronted by TV's ex-Superman Dean Cain that featured a woman vomiting over her partner after she discovered the porn stash hidden in his browser history. The ad has been pulled …
Offers a family pack, you pay $0 now, download or request a free CD and you can install it on as many devices as you can. Added bonus that you get the family pack versions of every useful productivity suite for the office, studio or home.

Who can remember this Xbox ad?

This too got pulled due to the weak of character complaining that it was to much for their infirm minds
