Vista was FULL of security issues though. I did PC support in that era and I kept going to one house in particular because they would pick up some crazy virus / Spyware from thier kid visiting sketchy porn sites. Didn't matter what I did or how I locked it down, or what AV I installed he would manage to get it reinfected. After the 8th time or so I just made them buy a XP license and told them they need to have a hard talk with thier kid about all the sites he was visiting. Once I had XP installed and appropriate AV, it stopped being an issue.
Edit: Whoops, nevermind it was Windows ME. Carry on with your Vista love (though I'm still not sure why you loved it)
Thanks, and have a nice day (actually it's night time where I live, so... have a nice night)
A lot of people misremember windows Vista sucking ass when actually it was ol' Mistake Edition.
