Windows Vista Service Pack 1

Microsoftfs legal team sends a cease-and-desist e-mail to a Web site owner who has posted more than 100 hot Vista fixes.

According to PC World, someone has posted 100 over fixes for Windows Vista on his website Hotfix.net, basically what he did was to compile all the fixes and label them as Windows Vista SP1, something which he claims to be the unofficial release of Vista SP1. Another website author took things a little bit further by uploading the fixes on his website and slap a three blocks of Google Adsense on the front page, which clearly is against Adsense policy - illegal activities.

Ifm not so worried about the unofficial fixes but what amazed me is the number of security holes in Vista within the first few months of official release, undeniably that bugs will always exist no matter how hard we tried to fix it, nothing is perfect but personally I think it would be a good move if Microsoft release Vista after fixing most of the bugs, meaning to say delay the launch for another year, this would reflect good on their overall corporate image which is well known for releasing softwares with tons of security holes.

In recent history, Microsoft unveiled Windows XP SP1 a bit more than 10 months after Windows XPfs debut. Windows Server 2003, however, didnft see SP1 for 23 months after the server software first appeared. Using those samples, Vista SP1 could appear anytime in 2008.
