No, no no... Microsoft had the page on its Web site then took it down
after the problem was uncovered. It's on the Google cache now because
Google temporarily stores everything it indexes. There for everyone to
see - Google helps make companies honest.

"Even as a longtime critic of the company, I must admit that
Microsoft occasionally flirts with the truth. Well, perhaps 'flirt'
is too strong a word. Let's just say Microsoft sometimes honks and
waves as it drives by her house."
