Story: Microsoft OneCare gets a bashing

I too,think this whole thing is incredible.A decent computer today is a rather expensive outlay.Load it up with a complete line of Microsoft products and the problems,threats,just keep on coming.Microsoft,just like major aircraft builders,ought to be held responsible for the proper and safe running of their products.To charge the consumer,the home-users for this new protection--that ought to have been protected to start with is simply outright fraud;a money grab.If this is the attitude of Mr.Gates;then perhaps it really is time to look elsewhere for better operating systems;a lesson learned?.Microsoft relented on the Anti-Spy program,kept it a free service and out of respect for all of us,I sincerely trust they will do the same for Microsoft OneCare as well.My thanks.
