In effect, Microsoft's attitude is that if its program trashes your valuable
data, it's "So sorry, so sad, we've got your money, and you've been had."
My advice is to BOYCOTT all companies which even *threaten* to put worms
in your system when you put their program on your hard disk.
(Remember Vault Corp.'s threat to market "Killer Prolok?")
