Windows questions are fine for General, but you may not get the most response from them. If the demand is there I may consider adding a windows forum to the non-Linux section.

Not to mension the fact that asking windows questions here is like asking for marital advice from your mechanic. There's no guarentee that the advice will be good, since many here rarely if ever use windoze. But thanks for not being snobby anyhow.. :-)

Also when you look closer at the original poster, it seems like someone intentionally spoofing a moderator's name to make it look like its an "official" posting.

I guess someone's trying to troll....
