well, I never really thought about it like that, but I have to admit: you're actually right patchou!!
It's true that microsoft sometimes leaves bugs and security holes in their software that should have been fixed before their software is released, but it's also true that their software has major upsides: without microsoft MSN messenger wouldnt exist and Messenger Plus! wouldnt even exist!
and like patchou says, it's not fair to blame Microsoft when they do something like this, it is their every right and it's quite understandable why they would do something like that (thx to patchou's little storry
)
BUT, if they will ask money for it ==> IT WILL STILL SUCK
conclusion: I would understand it if they did it, but I hope they wont ....
