well thats because linux et all is opensource hence the advice free,
whereas if I was supporting MS I would have to:
1. Charge
2. Ask you to reboot before anything
3. Ask you to install patches
4. Ask you to upgrade the underlying OS
5. transfer the support email
6. Post as a open ticket to tech support in US,,,and then hope you dont
call back
7. Charge....ad infinitum :-)
