    Sounds like you need to be using Firefox, a free open source web browser... suitablly equipped with the Adblock extension. Then you wouldn't keep seeing the Microsoft adverts :-)

    Not having to read the Microsoft adverts will therefore increase your productivity. Proof that Open Source software improves TCO!
