A little off topic, but still disturbing to me:

I upgraded to WM2003 and re-installed msreader (REV. 2.2.2 Build 3143)

The problem I've discovered is that I've lost the ability to access ALL the freebie titles that MS was promoting during the "summer giveaway promotion".

I reactivated with a new passport account (because I've changed providers), and now all the great books I was downloading and saving can't be accessed.

MS's troubleshooting guide suggests to download the books again. Unfortunately, MS only posts the books for a week at a time, so the library I thought I was building for future reading is now just wasted space on my disks.

Oh well, I guess you get what you don't pay for.
