Aehso’s Output

Continuing my little I-Hate-Windows rant from the other day, isn’t this little button on Microsoft’s website cute?

The target page has a reassuring picture of a girl in medieval armour looking mean.

I found that gem via a MS security update page – one of the 2003 servers here in work decided it needed to be updated but didn’t know how to do it itself. Dumb-ass OS.

That lead me to some interesting instructions from MS on how to determine if you have any anti-spyware products installed:

Do I already have anti-spyware?
To see if you already have anti-spyware software:

1. Click Start, and then point to All Programs.
2. Look for the words “spy,” “spyware,” or “anti-spyware,” for example, Microsoft AntiSpyware or Spybot Search & Destroy. You may also see the name Lavasoft Ad-Aware.

So if the user saw something like “The In-Your-Face Spyware Rootkit Virus” then they would probably think they were all sorted already thanks very much. Very clever.
