   Wasn't there some sort of problem like this with XP a little while ago? I remember hearing about something quite similar.

   Yes I think so. It was pretty bad, because there were quite a few people that knew about it and exploited it BEFORE M$ released the story, and SP1 to fix it.

   Just what we need, another Windows ME flaw :DI'm surprised they didn't find out about this sooner, with the same thing happening with Windows XP. What's that about?? :confused:

   LOL good point. It is kind of the same way as 98 and so on, where M$ is discontinuing help for those OS's, since they are getting outdated, and people should upgrade to XP, etc..
