i hate you, microsoft

so i'm sitting here at work and obviously shouldn't be blogging buuuuutttt windows decided to crap out on me so here i am, waiting on my files to transfer over so i can rebuild the box (thank you Ubuntu live cd!). Transfering my main bulk of files is going to take about an hour and I can't do anything work related so this is what I'm going to do, rant.

WTF Microsoft?!? I apply one of your "security updates" and now I can't get into my box? What sense does that make? I figured out the problem, for whatever reason it decided to change the registry setting for the WinLogon key to point to my VMWare .dll logon file as opposed to the actual MS logon file....you're a shit company so I hope eventually you die by the wayside. I think this is the last straw for me and Microsoft, when I get home I'm going to back up my files from my PC laptop and then install some flavor of Linux...maybe, I still need to re-build my iTunes library from when my NAS decided it no longer felt the need to function across a network. And I'll need to find some sort of replacement for iTunes or move everything over to my iMac.
