>The page states "If you think you have found a bug in a Microsoft

>(800) MICROSOFT (642-7676)".  No email address, no web form, just a
>phone number.

>So I call this number, and after five minutes of sitting through IVR

>number, and as soon as I mention that I am reporting a bug in Internet
>Explorer, says she will transfer my call.

>At that point I get fifteen seconds of music on hold, followed by dead
