Although the script did fix muti select in some (very few) of my folders
until i logged on again.
I still have no column headers or multi-select in most folders including the
root of c:\, my documents, or any network mapped drive. Also my folders are
reverting back to no multi-select as i type this.

Why is there no official patch for this yet?
Its been an issue since march 07. So to translate to Microsoft, for 4 months
now ive had to use DOS to copy or move multiple files around on my computer.
This is totally unacceptable. I might as well be running Windows for
workgroups.

Vista is trash at this point. I cannot see any value to it or any reason to
recommend it.
Device driver support gets a 1 out of 10
Legacy Application support gets a 1 out of 10
User interface gets a 0 out of 10
Gaming support gets a 0 out of 10 because it is non existant
Vista ultimate addons are completely worthless. Could we get a tweakUI ?
etc...

400 dollars for this piece of over hyped, prematurely released, buggy and
non functioning OS.
Im not an MS basher by any means but...

Heres a list of things that there is no support for.
Any 3rd part VPN clinet, SSL, IPsec, etc...
SLI, USB 2.0 support on my sager laptop.
Any MMC apps to manage servers from, including AD, Exchange, SQL etc.

This is a big deal to us system administrators out there who cannot manage
our servers from Vista.
