1. I was talking about my post, and you know it.
2. Here are the "Rules of conduct", found right from the little "Help" link
at the top of the web-reader window.

Rules of conduct
Appropriate Language: The purpose of our communities is to exchange
technical information and expertise about Microsoft products. Please avoid
personal attacks, slurs, and profanity in your interactions.
Relevance to Topics: Please make sure that your postings in discussion
groups and chats are relevant to the subject at hand. It is normal for some
topics to drift from the stated subject. However, to ensure maximum benefit
for everyone, we encourage you to keep your postings as close to the subject
as possible.
Advertising/Solicitation: These communities were created as a forum for
providing peer-to-peer assistance on Microsoft products and services. We ask
that you refrain from posting advertisements or solicitations that do not
pertain directly to the intended use and purpose of the newsgroup or chat.
Confidentiality: Please keep in mind that our communities are public spaces,
so don't post anything that you don't want the world to see. Credit card
numbers, product keys, and other confidential information, including
anything covered under a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), should not be
posted to a discussion group, chat, or other community.

This is one of your answers regarding the amount of times Windows XP can be
loaded onto one machine: "My guess is that ignorance comes naturally to
you." Now, if you go back to step 2, and click that help link again, you
will see that you CAN be reported for this. Stop TRYING to be so smart, and
use the newsgroups as they were intended to be used. I'm sure I say this on
behalf of most, if not all, of the newsgroup community, Thanks.
