Fair enough > plus its created by Microsoft. Right. Could someone explain to me exactly why this is a problem? Widely used, so an obvious target for bypassing - yes, I'll go along with that. "Created by Microsoft" - no, that's not a problem. Had you said "Created by Microsoft and has inherent security flaws as demonstrated by <link>, <link>, <link> and this paper here written by <whoever>", then yes, that would be a valid point. Simply slating something because it's created by one manufacturer is not. I might not like Volvo cars, but I don't feel the need to slag off the airbag at every possible vaguely related opportunity.
