As Claude mentions it is not that bad, but the bad
side still gives trouble that is to windows users.  

Not to defend Windows here, but the other guys,
spammers, advertisers, Virus writers, etc are the ones
that make Windows give its users trouble.  They get
ahold of the system and make it into a zombie machine.
 Finding those trackers/viruses/trojan horses is where
the fun begins.  Sometimes they are too many that the
last resort is to reinstall it and cycle through the
process again like Tim says.

Antonio
