They are peer-to-peer <but very occasionally one of the peers works for
Microsoft.

Thanks. This would explain number of questions not being answered. Not
complaining; just wanted to know the name of the game.

Not often. If they were maybe they could do something about the harvesting
of names to send the MS disguised viruses that take mailwasher a long time
to delete the hundreds that I get.

since the bulk of the harvesting most likely takes place on non-MS
servers, what do you think MS could do?

It looks to me like lots of questions are being answered--and not many are
skipped over.

I think JE has posted words to the effect: If it hasn't be answered, it usually
means that no one can decipher the question, it's too complex and would take
hours to respond, or nobody currently reading knows the answer.

Do you have a question that was missed?

You're right. I must've run into a drought :)

I'm not concerned if my questions wouldn't get answered. If support here is
peer-based, it's perfectly normal that some of them get nothing in return.

Thanks.
