Kev,
How did it cause such a fuss if you were simply reporting an XP
irregularity? The purpose of such comments is to help others, perhaps
to save them from a potential problem.
This free flow of information is what makes these lists such a
wonderful medium for education and enlightenment, I would never
hesitate to pass on an observation concerning W*n or any other OS.
As to flaming and personal attacks - well what can one say. That is
totally unnecessary behaviour in any part of life.
