    I bet they're kicking themselves for that one. I can't remember where I read this, but apparently in a port of Windows XP to another language they translated (in the register Windows section of activation) "Male" correctly, but "Female" as "Bitch". Bit of a blunder.

    Hello,

    Well don't get too hard on MS.... Maybe they didn't have time to work on their OWN software!
