I have to use Windows at work. Fortunately I'm a domain admin. I'll be disabling this shit with conventional methods, and also write a scheduled task script to whack the SQLite DB...or whatever it takes to nuke it from orbit.

For home users, there are tools like NTLite that let you create custom installation images for Windows. Hopefully those will be able to remove it completely.

For home users, most of you I'm sure are just using a web browser 99% of the time. For this, to beat a dead horse, there is Linux.

Unfortunately I do a lot more than browsing and gaming when it comes to Windows. I hope to retire soon, and then make the full switch. I do like Linux, and have used it for some things.

I chose the wrong horse when I began my career over 3 decades ago.
