They are probably trying to steal ur credit kard info if you are a legit user, why does it matter?! I will try to make this simple. What if you woke up and found someone sleeping in your car? He is not there for nefarious purposes, he was just tired. Is that wrong? Of course it is. You paid for your car and you have the right to allow or deny whomever you choose entry in to it. Similarly I paid for my OS and my PC. Therefore I alone have the right to allow or deny what can be done with it. That is my view. Of course as long as I am not violating MS's copyright or ability to make a profit. trickyrick, How long can a company do this? Look at the post above yours. A company can do this as long as they have customers like these that allow them to. As long as people line up begging to be bent over by MS then MS will continue to treat people that way. Only when the money dries up would they even begin to consider changing their business model.
