Re: MS at least try to be the good guys every now and then

Microsoft's first attempt a security was shouted down everywhere, OK, so Vista wasn't a perfect solution but it was a start and everyone was running around saying that it was a disaster because it made users actually have to work at security.

But it's not just the computers and users that are the problem, every computer is connected to the internet and the standard ISP supplied access device has issues too and anyone can hook up to the internet and try and break into your computer.

Security in the internet today is like making everyone walk around naked all the time and then complaining about the backroom chatter.
