    First your very prone to calling anyone you don't like at the time a 
Troll. Where you get this name I know not but it sounds like a bad thing.

    As for the original message it was someone who was new to Ubuntu and 
had somehow ruined his Windows. It sounded like he took the simple out 
and re-loaded Windows. A Troll he was not. He just wrote one message.

    The entire problem was us. We kept the issue open long after the 
person, maybe a Doctor or a Bum, left this list.
