I've just downloaded February's security patches including WINFIX. I see I've been asked to pay £30 just to register and use this. Just who do Microsoft think they are, charging users £30 to fix their crappy crap Operating System? Just how dare they? The failures in the operating system are due to their own inept designers and now they want to charge its users £30 to fix problems which result from their own underpowered OS. Has anyone else encountered this? PS - I think this really takes the biscuit - now with the Intel Apples coming out, I'm thinking it's time to push Windows off the edge of the technological rubbish heap and go for a higher operating system like Tiger Mac completely.

Stop blaming M$ or our very generous Uncle Billy. WinFix is a third party software that you chosen to use on your own prerogatives. i_XpUser

It is better to be quiet than to speak up and look naïve.....LOL You are nobody till you go hunting with Cheney !!!

I didn't ask for WINFIX to be downloaded - it seems to have jumped on board with the Windows Updates. If I had deliberately searched out WINFIX to install on my computer then I would have googled for it and then reviewed it to see if it was worth it. Sneaking in downloads like this is pretty crass. "Stop blaming M$ or our very generous Uncle Billy. WinFix is a third party software that you chosen to use on your own prerogatives." Hmmm. Uncle Bill offers special favours to some huh?

Sabertooth is correct. Momma always said.."It is sometimes better to hold your tongue and appear stupid, rather than to open your mouth and prove it".

There really is one born every minute Science is built up with facts, as a house is with stones. But a collection of facts is not more a science than a heap of stones is a home
