I just got another microsoft patch today. I think it was an update to the malicious spyware utility or something. Is that patch safe to install?

A patch for the patch.. That’s classic. With the amount of money and talent they have you would think that they could get something like this right from the start.

Talking about cruel tech support, it’s also similar to having to use a pay phone to call your ISP because your net is down and you’re using VOIP for your main phone, and they tell you to call from your home.

Man, it looks like they lost their foot in their face again. They were getting flamed for not patching it, so the only way it could get worse would have been to release a bad patch. Go M$!
