Uh-huh...

Milo, your sporadic, infrequent posts to MS newsgroups
(http://groups.google.com/groups/search?q=%22milo+(+MSPSS)%22&start=0&scoring=d)
has a fraudulent air about it. Can you post your credentials, please?

MS representatives usually post using name@online.microsoft.com aliases and
include "[MSFT]" in their usernames (e.g., Milo [MSFT]).

MS representatives' sigs usually include the word Microsoft (e.g., Microsoft
Online Support; Microsoft PSS) as well as the phrase "This posting is
provided 'As Is' with no warranties, and confers no rights."

Furthermore, I've never seen an MS representative ask a poster to reply to a
Hotmail address, let alone send a HijackThis log (which contains personal
information), use TinyURL or post a direct-download link (e.g.,
http://tinyurl.com/67reb [points to tomcoyote.com]).

Well so to help others has to do with my designation or so my job function if
ever? Does that accredit more to help? or so is it otherwise?

My only question to this inquisition if ever is this? If I can help other
here with the very tool you refer to them to as far as refering them to other
website , but in such term I go with them over it is it wrong?

Because MSPSS stands for Microsoft Product Services Support.
Your posts are misleading and cryptic, especially with your special little
URLs. I, personally, wouldn't advise anyone to click on anything you post.
