However, they do tend to get spooked by any mention of God or religion.

I think it is very spooky, though I am not frightened by it in the "real"
sense that it exist, just how people find good in it, when many of its words
are of utter dire.

Why, is it normal "only" sad that people associate themselves on with one
that you don't?

Honestly, that is being fairly narrow minded!

Anyhow, that is indicative of the qualities of how slavery, gender
discrimination, witch hunts, etc all came to be. Do you associate yourself
with those kind of people?
 
Apparently, the will include it with their Internet Explorer 7, which will be freely available for users of Windows XP SP2.

I thought the spyware protection was going to be a Separate product
and free to home user only

To original poster,
I would check to see if you have any better isp out there.
I would recommend using firefox if you don’t keep your system up to
date.

The Anti-Spyware is going to be a separate product and will remain free as
far as I know. However, we had drifted off onto the subject of Microsoft's
limited anti-virus functionality that may be included with the next version
of Internet Explorer.

It's been my experience that it's Republicans that don't have a sence of
humor!

Politicians don't have any sense or humour <BG>
They do have folk in the background that nod or shake their heads for clues
as to when to laugh.
As for M$, what's right with them is a shorter list - no?
 
Seems a shame that every time MS tries to include some nice feature in
Windows, the EU sues them for unfair trade.

You prefer criminals do you?

I would prefer the company of some criminals to mindless, senseless,
humourless, drooling Green Party associates.

If I perceived a group of people to be insane, closed-minded, humourless,
and devoid of all common sense, I would not join them and call them my
"fellows". Rather I would disassociate myself with such people and associate
with sane, open-minded folks with lots of common sense and a sense of
humour, assuming I could locate such a group.

Well, I wouldn't have them prosecuted! I believe they have the right to lock
themselves in closets if that's what they want to do.

I believe you are courting a fallacy. Just because I would prefer not_to
associate myself with an organization of drooling ninnies does not imply
that would seek out disreputable types, in fact it implies that I have good
judgment and would seek out a solid sensible group of people with whom to
associate myself.

Well, I'm between party affiliations right now, both in terms of ideology
and actual registration. I should've said "former" fellows as I have been
recently banned on one "progressive" message board where I was a regular
contributor since 2001. The other "progressive" message board (a UK based
board) has decended into a collection of incoherent rants and buckets of
regurgitated moonbat theories.

I stated that knowing what I knew on 08 NOV 2000, I would again vote for
Ralph Nader, even if I lived in Florida. That's where the fissures began.
It's when I began saying that if Ralph Nader were not listed on the ballot
in California, I would have to vote for the more progressive candidate of
the two major parties. Of course, that would be George W. Bush. Whereas I
could defend both Nader and Bush with reasoned policy analysis, other
participants in the group became unhinged and could only resort to personal
attacks and/or inane slogans.

As a result of Peter "don't vote for me or the Democrat might lose" Camejo's
campaign in the California Recall election and the Green Party's "stealth"
presidential campaign in 2004, I have stopped all contributions (was $25 per
month since early 2000).

So, I guess I really am an Independent now.

Well if not greens that leaves war criminals and torturers. Greens are harmless loomies, but they don't kill people.
 
Bizarre, one registers one's political affiliation.

I'm a conservative turned socialist. But I distrust swinging voters and to be frank they are scum. A swinging voter, if you don't use that term, is a voter that changes votes based on the bribe offered to them. They vote on self interest not society's interest.

Of course referring to others not of your liking (or like you) "drooling
ninnies" is an indicator of a disreputable fellow. I base people on
principle, not by their political, religious, or social leanings. People can
be bad (or ninnies) in any kind of group setting. But leaning to one side
simply because of your perceived attributes of the *others*, is indicative
of a ninny that calls other ninnies!

I had a hunch you'd see things my way.

I believe you are presenting the false dilemma fallacy. I prefer to
associate with neither harmless loonies nor vicious criminals.

I am basing that characterization on the original poster's view, not mine.
Read again his description of his "fellow Green Party members"

"Clearly the worst are my fellow Green Party members. They've lost
their minds completely and have been reduced to shutting themselves in
dark closets where they're probably curled up in the fetal position,
lying a puddle of their own drool. Not only have they lost their sense
of humor but all manner of common sense and reality as well."

*If* I felt that way about a certain group of people, I would not associate
myself with them, would you?

Please make up your mind!

How would you like to own Adaware, selling your Pro product to
businesses, and then have some mega-monopolistic OS developer start
giving out a comparable [though in my opinion, not as good] product to
all its customers for free.

It is clearly a restraint of trade in the small business market for
AntiSpyware products.
