Microlame

For a company that has somewhat of a responsibilty to humanity for the bastard of a software empire, Microsoft's Mac site sucks a massive amount of bawls. Bastardized drivers that take your mouse away from your mac and helpful hints on how to backsave which any moron would know before they were forced behind the devil that is Microsoft Office. I think I may hate the Mac version more than the PC version simply because it is a good system that is forced to run a powerfully bad idea, though one that is mostly conformant to the Aqua Human Interface Guidelines. I still wish Bill would take PowerPoint out back and shoot it, let the boys in software design come up with a better way to make life miserable.

They say they have a .pst tool, but all I see is

Server Error in '/fwlink' Application.

Runtime Error

Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.


Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".


&lt;!-- Web.Config Configuration File --&gt;

&lt;configuration&gt;
    &lt;system.web&gt;
        &lt;customErrors mode=&quot;Off&quot;/&gt;
    &lt;/system.web&gt;
&lt;/configuration&gt;


Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.


&lt;!-- Web.Config Configuration File --&gt;

&lt;configuration&gt;
    &lt;system.web&gt;
        &lt;customErrors mode=&quot;RemoteOnly&quot; defaultRedirect=&quot;mycustompage.htm&quot;/&gt;
    &lt;/system.web&gt;
&lt;/configuration&gt;
