Tooo funny!

Later in the article the guy says his wife has forgiven him and thinks it was very funny too.

Why MS continues to deliver products with such intrusive defaults is beyond me. Yes, they are easily changed, but the average user cannot be expected to be aware of these things.

I think this is just a joke. I've upgraded 3 computers to Windows 10 in the last week and not one of the three defaulted to a slide show from My Pictures.

I once went to a computer repair call. The complaint was that the computer had a virus. I sat in the room working and as processes were running my eyes moved around the room, where I saw a crucifix hanging, a few religious pictures, rosary beads carefully arranged on a table around a candle... very religious woman.

The scan for some files on a folder down 5 steps into a directory tree. Of course, the clean them up, I had to go see the filenames. They were named things like hsh36ega7w.mov and such. To check it, I opened one and was some of the NASTIEST stuff I have ever seen. This was all with the woman sitting right there with a bible in her hand and a rosary laced into her fingers. There was over a gig of this stuff, and 2-3 dozen of them popped up in the scan.

I told her the best thing for me to do was completely erase that directory and then scan again, and asked if that was okay. She said "Excuse me for a moment" and picked up the phone and called her husband. Hearing just that side of the conversation allowed me to get the gist of the conversation. She said "Hey the computer guy is here. Is it okay with you if we erase all this [*****] because that's where the viruses are..... Oh yes, we WILL talk about this later. Goodbye."

I felt SO BAD for her.

Moral of the story, if you are hiding [*****] from your wife, keep it on a thumb drive on your key ring or somewhere else like that.
