"Those who have given Vista a change do seem to like it..." jcollake, You must be talking about the guys at Maximum PC that wrote the article entitled, "10 Reasons You Don't Need vista Today"? Or maybe the editors at Games for Windows who found that Vista runs DX9 applications 5% slower than XP -even if you have spent a grand upgrading your hardware. Or maybe you are talking about the dozens of hardware vendors whose drivers don't work on Vista's first run? No one is saying Vista will flop in the long run but like every new OS to come from Redmond, this one is going to have some serious growing pains. It's not bias or irrational prejudice to point out the many flaws in Vista today. Most of us will give it its due when it cleans up its act. Until then, we're going to let others slog through the mud and wait for the satisfaction meter to go up several notches.

"The company suggested that users could protect themselves from the exploit by disconnecting their microphone and speakers, or by simply not using speech recognition."
I can do one better: Users can protect themselves from Windows Vista Exploits by not running Windows Vista...
