Microsoft's Windows Vista operating system is a mighty paradox. On the one
hand, it's more robust and feature-rich than any of its predecessors. For
the most part, it's also more secure and is immune to many pretty
sophisticated takedown attempts. But it's got one nasty Achilles' Heel,
which'll enable you to crash the OS in under 10 seconds. Here's the deal:
One of the simplest command sequences you can think of will take Vista down
completely. Hold down the Windows key and the letter "E" for 10 seconds or
so. After opening up Windows Explorer windows ad infinitum, your system
will stop responding.
