Don’t click this link!
Following up on The Hammer’s post from last night, here’s another doozy: In an article titled Microsoft Advises to Type in URLs Rather than Click, Slashdot is discussing an MS Knowledge Base article meant to keep users safe from malicious hyperlinks.

Is this part of a pattern? Is Microsoft really going to start laying the burden on users to provide workarounds for that company’s lousy programming practices? #
Linux, Mac… your time may be at hand… #
