SickWorm Posted February 12, 2004 Author Share Posted February 12, 2004 It seems that Microsoft products are not used so much as others do ! For example a saw many times Firefox in the topics, also iTunes. These products are going to break down download servers! lol :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's enough when coupled with FFDshow) Firewall: ZoneAlarm Free Edition (I think this is better than MS's one, though I'm not really confident) IM / Chat: MSN Messenger + mIRC CD Burning: Nero 6 (the cd-writing support in windows XP is crap, IMO) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IGx89 Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 It seems that Microsoft products are not used so much as others do ! For example a saw many times Firefox in the topics, also iTunes. These products are going to break down download servers! lol :p That's also probably because this whole forum has much more of an anti-MS tilt than the "real world" :). I use almost solely Microsoft software; not because I love MS, but because the alternatives aren't that appealing to me. I used to use Trillain, but then switched to just MSN when MSN 5/6 came out, and most of my contacts stopped using ICQ and AIM. MSN6 w/ MsgPlus is almost unbeatable, especially with the built-in skin and small games. I also use Hotmail for e-mail, and have been (with the same e-mail address!) for the last ~5 years :). Since Hotmail had that facelift a few months ago, I've also gotten a lot less junk mail -- in my junk mail folder (I've always been on exclusive)! They must automatically block a lot of junkmail at the server level now; I've gone from getting 30+ junkmails a day to <10 :D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozgeek Posted February 16, 2004 Share Posted February 16, 2004 Here's mine: I am a Microsoft fanstic. I use microsoft products because I know they are well developed and have very high support rate and that they are developed from a known company.
