Well, now that you mention it, it's about time a lead was introduced for
this.
See, most people think Hitler died during war. Of course, the allies
ferreted him away for experimental research. During this time he lost quite
a bit of weight and his eyesight worsened. Losing his traditional moustache,
he resurfaced with a new Moniker Lewinsky, Bill Gates.
He contacted all his elite SS storm troopers that were in hiding cleverly
disguised as Italian waiters and formed the fourth Reich, known as
Microsoft. If you re-arrange the letters in Microsoft you get MicrFoots
which is a reference
Zig Hile!
Steve!

Actually Bede (S).
AFAIK, WinDoze XP (AKA NT6) IS spyware that comes bundled with a bonus
operating system.
At least in its initial incarnation, it talked back to MS (AKA the Mother
Ship) to tell it what hardware and
(licensed?) software is installed in your PC and limits the amount of
hardware changes before it spits the dummy and wants you to pray to the late
Pearly Gates for more licensing permissions or something.
(Known in MS parlance as "Plug & Pray".)
This, of course, means that the only truly effective spyware remover on XP
is the FORMAT command.
(Or a book on How To Install LINUX.)
What's really scary is that I just looked up the Collins English Dictionary
(Aussie Hardcopy Tome) and under XP, it has:
XP n. in the Christian monogram made up of the Greek letters khi and rho,
the first two letters of Khristos, the Greek form of Christ's name.
Argh! Microsloth thinks it is G-d's gift to computing!
Proves beyond doubt my assertion that you should always beware of Geeks
bearing GIFs.
