Yeah, I hate those warnings!
It's damn annoying and stupid!

But now with build 5365 I have had no more warnings!
And build 5365 is really nice, I love it!

Its probably a bug in the build thats preventing those thiungs from popping up

Just wait until the next one.

Seriously though, why when I try to delete a folder do I need to confirm it like 4-5 times even on XP. I cant wait to see my CEOs reaction when he sees the upgrade bill for Vista. I might actually be able to convince him to run linux =P

I'd go with RedHat Linux, that's the one our company is using and I bet it's 1000000000000000000000 times better than any future windows os.

But it's optional, ain't it?
