One thing that sucks is you can't upload a file bigger than 50MB.

Uploading pirated copy of Windows Vista right now... letter from ISP cancelling service in 5, 4, 3, 2...

Microsoft doesnt care about your privacy...look at WGA...updated everytime you started your computer to check and see if your copy is legal or not. Why would they need to do that EVERYTIME you started your computer? Im not sure how they do that now..I have it removed and blocked from ever dling it again. They probably set it up to see how many people they can catch..or to just go through your porn collection and make copies.
