XP SP2 - Still Buggy

Unfortunately, the notorious Microsoft Mammoth is still holding on to
it's ever persistent image of wreaking havoc on O/S's!  With the latest
update from our esteemed "Rulers", XP now has an added "Undocumented
feature" of losing focus on applications - Even on logging in.  
 
e.g.  Press CTRL-ALT-DEL to bring up the logon dialog box - The text
will flash three times and then lose focus.  Open up a copy of IE, Same
thing - Three flashes and then poof, lost focus and not only that, but
if you happen to minimize you currently active screen, you cannot click
on the toolbar to bring up any previous windows until you minimize the
'new' active screen??
 
But ... We need not worry though,
For Microsoft keep on raking in the dough.
