I have been in the Mojave and Arizona deserts where it has been 50ºC+ in the shade and 65ºC in the sun 6 feet off the ground. I know a lot of you feel I deserve my special place in hell, well I've been there and already made my down payment.

So Mojave is nothing for me, rather sitting on nunatak with a beer.

For example, unless Apple recently changed things I recall MAC OS protection model allows execution off a stack. Microsoft cleaned that a long time ago. But, it is absolutely true that more hackers attack Windows. Living out in the Mojave might save you a mugging but Central Park is a much nicer place to take a walk. Take your pick! :-) Out of the Box Vista was MUCH better than XP plus most XP users ran as administrators, that is just asking for the kiss of death. I do know MACs can get malware, it is just not as common. Bob Kondner PS Actually most of the Mojave dwellers spend a lot of time using WINE or other VMs to walk in Central park, and they can still get mugged anyways. -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Inge Sent: Thursday, August 26, 2010 12:04 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [TN] NTC: windows 7 I gave up. Reinstalled Win 7. The whole operation with saving on external disk and reinstall all programs again took nearly whole day. I understand Graham's romance with Mac. / Inge ----- Original Message ----- From: "KennyB" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Thursday, August 26, 2010 2:02 AM Subject: Re: [TN] NTC: windows 7 Inge, You can also email Microsoft through a form from this website https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?gprid=9860&st=1&wfxredirect=1 &sd=gn They no longer have a phone number for this but inside of where it's asking you to buy there should be a phone contact option, you may need to do that.

If you have one of these you have a valid license and someone may have grabbed your code and used it. You simply need to contact Microsoft, I know easier said than done. Basically as long as you have this sticker you need to call Microsoft, it's likely someone stole your code and took over your "license".
