[QUOTE="Victor M, post: 1121597, member: 96560"] And the famous bad things it has done: Tried to kill off Netscape by making Internet Explorer free and built-in. Tried to kill off Java - an open, platform agnostic programming language, by making a proprietary version of Java with non-compatible MS-only functions. Make life hell for Linux users who share USB sticks with Linux by saying the stick has 'problems' if it detects that files are written to the stick using Linux. Enabling bitlocker to encrypt USB sticks if MS Security Baseline is installed so that Linux cannot use them. [/QUOTE]
