Yeah, the above was probably a joke.  However, it's amazing what people
believe about MS, so FYI:

It would be stupid of us to knowingly put a backdoor into Windows or any
other MS product.  A very large percentage of our customers reside
outside the USA, and many of them don't trust US Companies as a rule.
If we added backdoors to our software, we'd lose those customers
(probably forever), and losing customers is not high on our priority
list.
