carnival73: It's the same thing.

if you ever have to install a copy of XP before Service Pack 2 and find yourself in the situation where you're sitting there with Task Manager open and playing Space Invaders with a massive onslaught of Service Hosts, every once in awhile you'll trip one where you'll get a message from .NET authority that says you did a no no naughty and that is not the way they want you to use your computer and they give you a termination and reboot countdown.

For .NET Authority to have the authority to terminate and reboot my computer when I don't want MY computer terminated and rebooted.....well that's just a little bit too much 'authority.'

Lou: My only problem with all the free giveaways is having to setup an account. Just let me download. I do not have the time or patience (or memory) to be creating accounts and remembering passwords to a site I will never visit anyway.
