It's a good demonstration of just how badly put together Microsoft's
software is. They've known about it for years and done nothing but tell
people, "don't do that."

Of course it affects ordinary users and does nothing to MS, and
furthermore, the user has no idea that he is being affected by a bug in MS
rather than due to the bad behaviour of some poster.
Ie it is not a terribly effective demonstration.
