What’s up with Requiring a Passport for MS website

[lforbes]

Hi,

I clicked on a KB article on Windows 2000 Server and it required me to
login with MS Passport?

I am wondering if it is just me or if MS had changed something since
yesterday. I don’t want to give out my email to the passport because
the last time I logged into MS groups on their page, they posted my
email and I was then spammed.

Thanks

Lara

Then don't do it. Munge the e-mail address.

That's "mung" - a recursively defined acronym: "mung until no good".
