I found with a new computer that I bought (an HP) that I had to reload the entire operating system and Windows in order to get Internet Explorer to stop trying to control my Internet Access after I used it one time. The worst was when I wanted to take a look at MS Money. That D**n software won't let you close it down or get out of the application until you have gone through and it almost makes you sign up for MS Checkpay. I can't get the ICON off my desktop after having looked at Money one time. What Ba%$#ards those MS people are. The Windows division should be split off from the applications division that does Excel, Expedia, Money , etc.

Anyway I expect the States to Act on our Bully Billy Gates. I have a filling that we'll see indictments on perjury, obstructing justice charges on the top of charges for his business practices. It's not the time to be cocky. The best thing he can do now is to bent over and beg for forgiveness before it's too late. After the government has spent so much money and time on investigation, they are not going to end up with the slap on the wrist. On MSFT example they will teach others for decades to come. Silly Billy is messing with wrong species.
