Default This is absurd

What is absurd is the obnoxious amount of crossposting that you started.

I really, really, really, really, really, really tried hard not to
criticize microsoft, becuase I know some of you worship Bill Gates as
your God, but what just happened is beyond absurd. The world is in
heap big trouble with Microsoft at the helm of the software industry.

A little while ago, I got a notice that an update was ready. I didn't
know why I received it, becuase my system was set to receive Automatic
updates, and the caption on the notification said "Automatic Update".
First what is automatic about an update that asks me? Someone out to
knock Bill Gates on the head and ask, "Is anyone in there?". But that
isn't the problem, just a prelude. I'm really the idiote for saying
yes to the update. It was an Internet Exporer v7 update, or so it
said. I said yes, then it asked me if I accept the license, and of
course I did. The next thing I saw was that Internet Explorer V7 was
being installed ( I had it installed over a month ago). Then it said
it was uninstalling a previous version and I thought, Uh Oh!!!!!! And
rightfully so. I was asked to restart my computer and naturally I
couldn't ignor that request, becuase it kept coming back and bugging
me. So I said yes, and nothing happened. So I tried to restart and
it wouldn't. Finally after a several attempts I opened the task
manager and dumped a bunch of programs then was able to restart.
After I restated, I opened up IE and went to open a new tab and there
weren't any. HUH, I asked myself? No tabs? I like tabs, what
happened? This is what happened, the update uninstalled version 7 and
installed version 6.

Do I need to say any more? I can't, becuase there is no description
suitable to describe this, except, HUH!!!!!

I think Microsoft need some updating of personnel, starting with Bill
Gates and continuing until the last programmer is booted. Keep the
cleaning crew and the cafeteria staff.
