They claim they've made it better... but they're the reason I don't use IE anymore.

Enjoy...

And for all those who didn't get it... I'm pretty sure Microsoft didn't buy Firefox. :P

Wow, someone really put in alot of effort for this site - hillarious though.

"TakeOver" to protect windows from viral software such as Symantec - Actually, I wouldn't mind that (For Norton Anti-Virus Most effective. Fullscreen-crasher ever created).

I also liked the "Microsoft Akobe Phlash." :P

I agree for the most part.  It seems that the cheaper an anti-virus program is (i.e. free), the better it works.  IMO, Symantec and McAfee are garbage.  I wish Acronis would develop AV software.  That would be awesome.

I was fooled as well, when I clicked on the link the page didnt exist for some reason, so I assumed it was real.
