Schadenfreude
It's on /. so everyone has probably seen it but Microsoft suggests you should not trust them. The relevant bit:
What steps could I follow to prevent the control from being silently re-introduced onto my system?
The simplest way is to make sure you have no trusted publishers, including Microsoft.
I don't hate Microsoft (well, maybe a little...) but I do hate a lot of the web technology they backed. ActiveX was and is evil and this makes it pretty clear why. Also, it's cool there is a word for what I feel :)
