Here's one I had on Monday... There has been no shortage of them. I really like it when people share their opinions on how we should do business...

Really, PLEASE, drop any pride and for the good of humanity please damnit, combine your stuff into one program and save us all hell on earth. It may not be able to get whatever the hell was messing up my comp but surely having five anti-trojan programs and an antivirus one on at the same time along with all this other stuff I'm using will make things much better for people.

If you still want to make money then how about this, you combine your programs but all join a certain company among you? If that doesn't work how about you combine and sell the data necessary to find certain trojans? So whoever finds some way to find a new rootkit or whatever or a better way can offer a price for the update or multiple updates at once.

Why force people to use five programs, it's not efficient and can make your computer crash.

Maybe you can defeat webroot and avg if you all get together.

Yeah, that's it. Pride gets in the way. We force you to use multiple anti-malware programs! Man, they hit the nail on the head.  I see the light!  Thank you random, frustrated $Luser, I'll forward this to the CEO.

Even a Mac won't save these l.users

these are people that have a problem understanding the difference of single and double clicks never mind right and middle clicking.

What these people need is a managed system like web tb

No way - Etch-A-Sketch FTW!

To reboot - simply shake.

Maybe they think that programming is like in Swordfish, where you just plug the modules together.

If the concept that one software company with a (near-)monopoly would create a superior product to an open market actually worked, antivirus/anti-spyware/etc software wouldn't be the huge business it is.

Dang.

Gotta love working for a firm large enough to send a "sales support person" out with each buy to force the user (presumably at knife or gun point) to acquire other programming. Or do you guys sub it out to the Mafia?
