Thanks for the answer. But there was only a phone number. What is this, stuck
in the 80's? Can't I fill in some web form somewhere?

Nope. That's as good as it gets, these days. They pulled the web form
quite some time ago.

Oh, I would have started with some tiny bug and see if they can fix even that.

For example if I move the toolbar to left of the screen and a browser partly
covers it, then I click on the toolbar to bring it to top, and then if I
hover mouse pointer over a quick button on the toolbar the tooltip soon goes
under the toolbar. The bug occurs on around five first tooltips until I click
on the browser and click on the toolbar again.

What I don't like in Windows is that there are some small annoyances. It
would be better to fix those instead of creating a new even more bloated
operating system that might have tons of new bugs and annoyances. I mean,
things should get better over time, right?

Yes but your efforts will be in vain because they have no intention of
making any changes to Windows XP.

Windows Vista has replaced Windows XP. Any bugs found in XP now will not be
fixed.
