Comment 15 for bug 581157

I understand. Thx. for letting me know I wasn't the only person struck by the same bug/flaw in Ubuntu 10.4 via the WUBI app.
I am back to using Mac OS X & Windows 7. Speaking of XP, I can tell you its not as good as Windows 7. XP is stable but as you probably already know, XP is the #1 targeted O/S by Bad Guy Hackers WORLDWIDE. XP is the primary target on their Radar screen. Windows 7 & Vista (for that matter) have a few built security features w/in the kernel itself that XP does not have.
