Remarkable Behaviour

[Griffin NoName]

Every time I access the Monastery I get chucked off MSN. Is this coincidence or some greater power?

I've never seen anything like that.  How would they be related?

[Aggie]

Preemptive attack on Microsoft's new anti-piracy measures perhaps? 

[ivor]

I thought that's what Vista was?    I'll never buy Vista.

How would they be related?

Haven't a clue. Maybe Bill is second-cousin to Aunt Susan who was once a secret lover of Father Ted who had an illlegitimate Toadfish by an unkown rival to Aunt Susan?

Own up whoever you are !

I think it's me.

I'm distantly related to Ted Rogers (through Timothy Rogers, one of the founders of Newmarket, Ontario).  Ted Rogers owns all the various Rogers companies, which are a local telecommunications group.  Amongst other things, they offer internet access and have a strategic partnership with Yahoo.  Bell, the other big internet service provider, partnered with MSN.

So there you have it: a distant relative of mine picked sides against Microsoft and now we're reaping Bill Gates' terrible whirlwind.
