today I am totally microsoft's bitch

not funny: i'm stuck dealing with the fallout of a network admin's whimsical idea to update all developers from Office 2000 to Office 2003.
which happened to render a program that delivers contractually obligated client reports on a daily basis essentially useless. new method was programmed, but Microsoft's wonderful Spam-safe optionz refused to let me send outside the firewall.

ALL OUR CLIENTS LIVE OUTSIDE THE FIREWALL.
