I have nothing but the greatest respect for Jon Udell. His "Strategic Developer" column is the first thing I read when my copy of InfoWorld magazine arrives in the mail, and his blog is one of the best if you're interested in the technical aspects of web development, standards, and practices. If blogging is enjoyable because it allows us to watch an interesting mind at work, then Jon Udell's blog is definitely among the most enjoyable.

Speak for yourself, Daryl. I've been doing this since 1987. I and lots of other admins have always told users not to click anything unless they know what they're doing.
I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you're, what, mid-twenties and you've got a number of MS Certs? Have you ever actually worked in a world that had computers but didn't have Windows? Are you actually qualified to speak with authority about what "computer scientists" have been doing for years?
While the fault for Spyware as a whole certainly is not Microsoft's, the fault for the ability of the most simple pieces of spyware to work as well as they do rests squarely on their shoulders.
