OK, a couple of days ago upgraded to Windows Vista, and have been finding a lot of bugs and crappy things with it. Now my new discovery happens when browsing the GameSpot Forums. I keep getting a popup asking me to login to MSN Communities. See picture at link:

Is this something new I don't know about, or yet another stinking Windows Vista bug? I'm using IE7 and this is the only website that I'm on at the moment. I just installed Vista so I know it can't be spyware already... can it???

Never mind me I figured it out.

As it turns out, at the time there was a user in the "Community Statistics" box that has their avatar hosting/stored on their MSN groups account thus triggering that login window. Guess it was assuming I was on the MSN website.

Yeah... pretty irritating.
