Why people who don't use a Microsoft O/S will eventually go insane.

“ I use Expatshield ( http://expatshield.com/ ) to watch on the REAL BBC. # posted by  Anonymous : 9/6/11 11:20 AM Response to Hobson's Choice ” I am about to tell you why people who don't use a Microsoft O/S will eventually go insane. In the above referenced post I complained about not being able to watch any current Top Gear episodes.  Anonymous suggested  Expat Shield which I dutifully (and hastily) installed.  It's quite a hefty program, but finally I was able browse about the streets of London and the BBC.  I found Top Gear. I selected "watch the current episode (you have 18 hours left) Message:  We're sorry but people like you who don't live in the UK are not allowed to view video,but you can listen to BBC radio. Crapshit.  I uninstalled Expatshield, but  ... along with that program I also received "Bear Share."  It's a peer-to-peer share system that I used in the long ago.  It had hijacked the bottom rung of my Firefox menubar, so I closed it.  However, I noticed that while my Homepage dutifully opened with Firefox, opening new tabs took me to a Bear Share search page. It's now 8:24 AM.  I began the process of deleting Bear Share/Menu Bar at 6:15 AM.  Here's some of what I did.  It didn't solve the problem, so I ripped my shirt off, jumped out of the trench and started killing everything.  House to house urban  warfare.  BLAM BLAM BLAM!  Dll carnage.  HKEY massacre. Which brings me to my point.  Microsoft  is no different than our filthy government.  They know what's  best for us, and like it or not will shove it down out throats.  Once passed, it's impossible to get rid of. Don't like it?  Too bad.  Their judges won't listen to you, either.  Instead, they send you through a maze of useless FAQs, a process that assumes this is how you make your living wage. While most rational people would relish being able to take on today's government in man-to-man combat,  we cannot.  Not alone, anyway.  But us WINDOWS users can take on a surrogate. Microsoft .  It's not easy.  You can't  get rid of any of Microsoft's nanny state dictates without all-out mobilization.  I mean all-out.  Leave the wife and kids to fend for themselves for the duration, as you grapple  in the muddy trenches that are  WINDOWS bowels.  But—  if you're persistent—  you can win.  You can kill  an embedded agent.  It feels fk'n  great.  Swollen manly pride!  BEAR SHARE IS DEAD!!! I killed it dead. USA UAS USA! It's like putting a hammerlock on Obama, or carpet bombing the DNC. Catharsis! Sanity!  Apple users have no such outlet, which is why they are often insane.
