Windows Live OneCare Can Eat Your Email
FutureDomain writes in to point us to a blog sponsored by PC Magazine, reporting about another problem with Windows Live OneCare. Apparently, it sometimes deletes the entire Outlook or Outlook Express .PST mailbox when it finds a virus in one of the messages. The only solution is to tell OneCare to exclude the entire Outlook mailbox. This is the software that came in last in antivirus tests. The trail of tears is ongoing over on the Microsoft forums.
Jesus Christ, whoever put "trail of tears" in there needs to have their nuts removed; they obviously have no idea what the Trail of Tears was about, either that or they're an insensitive asshole (I'd probably go for both, myself). Let's never compare Microsoft's screw-ups to murder and relocation again, ever.
