Fiirst thing? Hmmm... that's a toss up between crashing, and locking up completley.

I installed it a week ago and thanks to WGA I had to restore my whole OS.

I installed it a couple months ago when I went to Vista...

...then recently I reinstalled it when I upgraded back to XP.

WGA wouldn't let me download SP2 until I downloaded it.

Fuckers.

When I opened it up, first thing it did was complain about my security options being too low, so I clicked on the "change security options" button and it froze, then offered to send me an error report.

The browser is still incredibly slow as well. What is it about Microsoft software that makes it so god damned slow?

Did you have to reinstall your OS because WGA broke it or because your copy isn't legit? Cause the whole thing's pretty easy to bypass (possibly the only advantage of being a slave to an inferior software maker is that their security is also inferior).

Is that your oh-so-subtle way of telling us that Vista sucks?

Huh? Would I say anything like Vista Sucks!? What possible reason would I have for saying Vista Sucks!? Ignoring the crashing (it's beta software, and you can't say something like Vista Sucks! based on beta software crashing), what else is there about the operating system that would make me say Vista Sucks!?
