Too funny to bury in the earlier subthread on user mistakes:
<http://www.novatech.co.uk/NOVATECH/SurveyOutcome.html>
"We were surprised by the number of people who confessed to physically
attacking their computers - 25 per cent. But looking at some of the
answers, it's clear that in many cases people were actually frustrated
at their own lack of know-how."
"Hopefully as technology improves and computers become ever more
user-friendly, these attacks will become less frequent!"
[Too bad they didn't break it down by OS. I wonder whether Windows or
Linux machines gets attacked more often? <g>]
A piece of advice from one respondent: "Always remember to put the PC
case back together, that means that when you kick it out of
frustration as it refuses to come to life, your foot won't go through
the motherboard in the process."
They also have a brief list of what I call stupid user tricks. My
favorite: The novice employee who arrived for her first day at work in
a huge office and ran into trouble with her computer. After an hour, a
passing IT worker asked her what was wrong and she snapped: "Well I
pressed the f1 button marked 'help' ages ago but nobody came."

It provides a way for links to be followed from a page that were not
intended to be there. If I write a page, I dont want m$ changing it.

And how is that any different from the links available based on a page from
the Netscape "What's related" feature?

Exactly what i, as a user of Windows 2000, have been claiming for very long
time.
Its actually a joke that some of the people surveyed regard W2K as a
realliable OS and compare how much more stable than Win95 it is. "83 %
more reliable than Windows 95", "64% more reliable than NT".... This is a
JOKE... how can this OS even compare to ZX81 OS? :-)
