Because of the utter stupidity of Symantec’s ‘Norton Internet Security’ app, I have been recommending to customers for a long time now to rely on the Windows XP firewall. You’d expect that with all the fuss Microsoft has been making about their New Approach To Security that the XP SP2 firewall would be pretty safe, even if (like most home users) the user is running with administrator privileges, right? Right?

Dead fucking wrong.

The sheer stupidity of Microsoft’s programming staggers me.
