I don't know about Windows, but you could do similar analysis on Unix systems, since 1990-ish, despite their being closed source. Dave's report (which was, indeed, hilarious, and a great lesson for us all) was based on observing the apps from outside (watching their file operations in particular).

The difference with free software, though, is that you don't haveto wait for the vendor to fix it (or hope that they care enough). If something is really itching, you're 100% empowered to scratch it.
