Joe Forster/STA is on a distinguished road
In the early days of home computers, the computer just crashed without any warning. One of Micro$oft's truly revolutional ideas is that, in Windows, you get a nice warning window about some system error, you can press OK (how friendly, isn't it? even if you have no other choice than pressing the OK...) and the computer THEN crashes.

It seems we have arrived into a new era: now you launch the trojan/backdoor/adware/spyware/data miner yourself happily and can even press OK to have it installed and mess up your computer, steal your personal details and/or harrass you with annoying advertisements. Brave new world, indeed!
