|I clicked on Windows Update from the Tools menu option in IE6, I got this

| Hmmm, the last time I checked eMachines doesn't run Mac OS (never has, never
| will).
|
| My machine says Windows XP when I start up, when I log on, when I click the
| start menu yada yada yada. Has ever since I've had this machine - about 1
| year.
|
| Didn't know that Mac OS could be installed on Windows???
|
| OK, so I'm being somewhat of a jaka$$, but what the heck is this all about?
|
| And no, I have no viruses or other malware on my machine.
|
| To be honest and frank, since upgrading to SP3, I've had problem after
| problem after problem. Some not so bad, others annoying (like my new
| anti-virus program had to be complete removed and replaced). Some are just
| freakin weird, like the one above.
|
| Is this MS's way of driving people to Vists???
