From Wired's RSS feed (with my emphasis):
Microsoft says the upcoming release of Windows XP Service Pack 2 will make it much harder to sneak deceptive software onto users' computers. Is it game over for spyware authors? By Amit Asaravala.
Indeed. Because everyone knows that Microsoft always comes through on these promises, and that they've never preannounced something that subsequently didn't come to fruition. Remember when they announced Trustworthy Computing and then we had no more viruses?
