Microsoft pulled the plug on a program that let people chat online with a virtual Santa Claus after its Santa spewed offensive language. Microsoft added the [email protected] address to its instant messenger service to allow kids to chat with Santa. But in some situations, the automated program would ask the people chatting with it about certain sex acts. After trying to fix the Santa, Microsoft disabled the feature and apologized for any offense it may have caused.
