Re: Is Microsoft aware?

In article <1189655783.148358.22010@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>,
p.n.jayant@xxxxxxxxx says...
But has Microsoft taken effective steps to stop software manufacturers
like SystemSecure or UltimateCleaner from using Microsoft's
proprietary features like Windows System Alert Box to publicize their
products, blatantly giving a false impression that their products have
been recommended by Microsoft and in the process, infecting user
systems with worms?

How the OS is used is up to you and what you allow. If you don't want to
allow apps/vendors/people to use features of the OS that are exposed for
use, then it's up to you, not Microsoft, to limit their access to YOUR
COMPUTER.
