Yeah, great stuff that. My Netflix plugin in WMC has chronically crashed for months when reaching the end of a movie or show. Requires a ctrl-alt-del to kill WMC, and then it'll do it again the next time you hit the end. I just found out today that if you install (gotta do this manually, evidently, since I just ran full updates on this box) Silverlight 5, you can cut down the crashes *almost* all the way.

I don't remember these kinds of problems before Netflix used Silverlight. :/

“Go to hell, Senator, it’s time for you to take your final dirt nap.” - Nooooo, no, you got it all wrong, see. "Dirt nap", in this context, just means laying down for a short sleep without first taking a shower or anything. This is just a suggestion for John McCain to take up a little better personal hygiene and in is no way violent in nature. You people with your jump to conclusions mats!
