Ed;
I give ya credit though;
At least you have the intestinal fortitude to admit that you made a
mistake.
Those initials didn't teach that.
Happens to everyone.
glad you got your problem resolved.

I still blame Vista, as it should have told me the drivers were incompatible
with Vista on install. I think you may drink the M$ kool-aid too much. I
neither love nor hate Microsoft; I just acknowledge its existence and deal
with it. Since most of my computer/network/data security career is spent
fixed owned Windows client and server boxes, my skepticism of Microsoft runs
pretty high. I still recommend to my customers that Microsoft OS-based
devices be unable to access the Internet directly, but with laptops you do
not have a choice. Personally I use a Mac laptop for penetration testing
and daily activities. Much easier to secure and more robust; no ActiveX to
worry about, which I recommend ActiveX be block by default on all corporate
networks (except for M$ because they are the only fools who still use it)
Most of my friends have left M$ for better jobs, so I have very little
contact there anymore. Microsoft DRM really blows and will end up being a
mistake IMHO. And this insistence on phoning home via Genuine Advantage has
got a lot of business owners pissed as well.
