IE has built in popups when you install it. no one believes me when i say it, but when you've got a clean install and get popups, there is no other way.

are you sure it isn't just cause you didn't install all the upgrades when you installed IE? There's plenty of adware companies scanning subnets for machines with outdated exploitable software running

These days, if it isn't open source there's a very good chance it's spyware of some form.

The questions you need to ask yourself when getting stuff for free is why is it free, and how do the people producing it earn a living.
Written by: flid
If it's a huge company like Microsoft or Sun with lots of money to burn and can afford to fund free stuff then they do so as it's good advertising for them. MS arn't stupid enough to use spyware. Don't be silly.

Substantiate any accusations you have with fact.
Written by: flid
To say that IE contains advertising is misguided. To say it has popups enabled as default is correct, it's a feature! Popups arn't evil, cookies arn't evil. Some people try doing evil things with them, but they arn't a problem in themselves.

If you visit the sort of sites on a regular basis (*ahem*porn*warez*cracking*ahem*) that have dodgy popups on then you should perhaps change your browsing habits.

There's a reason serious computer users (ie big business) use operating systems from large companies, it's stable and has support.

I'd never in a million years recomend people use microsoft windows as a server, but i'd also not recomend using completely open source software unless they really know what they are doing.
Written by: flid
Open source software released under GNU GPL (as opposed to something like MIT) is not free.

It counts as subverting the computers operation, because I consider the computers purpose to be running my programs, not having services running in the background that use resources, and increase the chance of the computer crashing.
Written by: Polarity
No it's because the software is advertised.

I'm not a big fan of Linux. It's too much of a mess with hundreds of distros
Written by: Polarity
OpenBSD is without a doubt the best operating system if you want security.I use OpenBSD, and there's no hope of running it unless you're intelligent enough to read manuals (no user friendly installer, or huge numbers of programs installed and activated by default).
Written by: Polarity
Linux/Unix has a much better record of stability/security/performance. Sufficiently so that it is used by the most highly trafficed web servers like Yahoo with FreeBSD, and Google with RedHat. The most popular webserver software is Apache, MySQL and PHP.

There is no such thing as a corporation doing pro bono work, as the benefit to themselves in terms of PR and advertising must outweigh the cost of giving money away, in order to achieve profits.

So I opened Safari, the browser that comes with System X. And was able to. May as well just use Safari! Though I would like to give Firefox a try as so many people say it's nice.

if it's just popups that are your problem as opposed to dodgy popups, install service pack2. Whether you use firefox on windows or not you should still get sp2.

honestly, for what i need it for, winxp does what i need it to. i've got 12 days of uptime now, and nothing's falling apart. i need to reboot soon tho, as i installed alcohol, the best program ever. Sure, if i was a massive corporation where every spare fraction of a percent of cpu time was vital and worth lots, it wouldn't be all that good. If i was running an uber secure server or something, it wouldn't be all that good. but (un?)fortunately, im neither of those, or the half-dozen other situations where maximum security, minimum processor optimization and stuff are needed.
