Microsoft bug reporting
Have my Googling skills degraded or is it really that hard to find a clear way submit a bug report to MS?

Re: Microsoft bug reporting
I swear that result wasn't there before. It's witchcraft! Witchcraft I tell ya!
Wow, after creating a Live! account, I had to agree to no less than 3 agreements (which I've read in full and had my attorney examine, of course), only to show that my status is Pending. I guess they'll be calling my friends and family for character evaluation. If I were buying a handgun I'd have it already, even with my history of mental illness, drug abuse and being a registered sex offender. And also I'm an astronaut.
It could be a clever tactic actually. Make the process as hard as possible to deter people from submitting bug reports, so you can claim there are no/very few bugs based on the number of reports. And that registration was only for one product (SQL Server). If I want to report a bug for another product I'd have to go through it again.

Re: Microsoft bug reporting
the Live! account thing can be very annoying.
If you go to a MS web site, sometimes it'll redirect you to the Live! login and redirect back to the original page. Now, if it isn't what you want, hitting the back button takes you to the login page, again, and pushes you forward to the page you were trying to leave.
