Those bugs were fixed in May of 2011.<br>
Are people really running unpatched the last 2 years?<br>
<br>
THAT cannot be the issue here.<br>

Sorta related, I switched to using powershell as my default shell on Windows -<br>
got tired of the crap interface from cmd.exe. In the 90s, I used 4Dos and 4NT to<br>
work around <a href="http://command.com" target="_blank">command.com</a> and cmd.exe suckage. With powershell, I almost don't<br>
