More evidence that Microsoft is doing the right thing
Microsoft has told the world that the next big update to Windows XP will take security seriously.
The acid test of how serious they are is whether they'll make changes even if those changes break programs that people are using.
Microsoft announced recently that one of their own programs will stop working when you install XP Service Pack 2. If you're curious, it's the Business Solutions CRM application, and you can download a fix that will make it work again under Service Pack 2. The point is that Microsoft is biting the bullet and making security a genuine priority.
