Can we say Packet shapper, and QOS! Then a rogue app could never have done this. Only poor network design can cause this. If you design the network correctly you do not need spanning tree protocol anyways. Only cisco uses this troublesome protocol. Many poorly designed networks fall victim to it.
Why would I want to migrate from Windows to a platform that's not ready for the mainstream? When Linux supports everthing (not just games, but devices and Business Apps as well) that Windows supports, I'll switch; But it's no where near ready to be a desktop OS. I run it for my web server and firewall, but not for my desktop. I cannot see any practical reason to migrate to Linux on the desktop when most of the apps I run are not supported or are much more complicated to run. Plus I do not feel like having to work when im at home and if there is one thing Linux makes you do is work for what you want.
