• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

EU Asks Microsoft to Remove Vista Security Features

I just think EU has a vendetta vs MS to be honest. XP doesnt prevent you from using 3rd party apps and neither does Vista.

MS Firewall is not required.
MS media player is not required.
MS browser is not required.
MS CD/DVD software is not required.
MS Disk Defragmenter is not required.
MS Defender is not required.
Etc..

The only thing EU does by forcing MS to create "basic" versions of their OS for EU sales is hurt the buyers of those MS products. (the EU version MS made of XP is a VERY poor seller for that very reason)

Let the buyers and OEMs decide what to include and what not to include. So long as MS does not try and force their software by contract leverage or by code prevention there is no point in restricting what they can include.



MS should just send them a copy of Windows 95

EDIT 2: No biases here, if anything - I'm a Republican - I would try and make Gore look like an idiot
Oh making gore look like an idiot is fun at any rate.

Id just prefer straight up facts given to me.
