WPA crash vista???

Okay. I need help since I barely use M$ any more, the last time I used it for something other than school, work, or AIM was back in the days of WIN98. I was just reading the article on this site, Is Microsoft about to release a Windows “kill switch”? | Ed Bott's Microsoft Report | ZDNet.com, and I have a question about it. Does this only apply to XP or to Vista as well? Because my friend just had her first "Blue Screen of Death" attack and is scared that she destroyed her computer. I have yet to know if it happened right after security updates or not, but I know she has auto updates so it would have done it itself.
Any help would be appriciated.

RIFIUTI2(1)					      A MS Windows recycle bin analysis tool					       RIFIUTI2(1)

NAME
rifiuti2 - A MS Windows recycle bin analysis tool SYNOPSIS
rifiuti [ -x ] [ -tnl8 ] [ -o outfile ] filename rifiuti-vista [ -x ] [ -n8 ] [ -o outfile ] file_or_directory DESCRIPTION
Rifiuti2 is a rewrite of rifiuti, a great tool from Foundstone folks for analyzing Windows Recycle Bin INFO2 file. Analysis of Windows Recycle Bin is usually carried out during Windows computer forensics. Rifiuti2 can extract file deletion time, original path and size of deleted files and whether the deleted files have been moved out from the recycle bin since they are trashed. Rifiuti2 supports the INFO2 file format found in Windows up to Windows XP and the new file format found in Vista, and the program is fully internationalized. If you need to analyse recycle bins of Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008, you should use the rifiuti-vista command, for other Windows plat- forms, you should use the rifiuti command. Quoting from original Foundstone page: Many computer crime investigations require the reconstruction of a subject's Recycle Bin. Since this analysis technique is executed regularly, we researched the structure of the data found in the Recycle Bin repository files (INFO2 files). Rifiuti, the Italian word meaning "trash", was developed to examine the contents of the INFO2 file in the Recycle Bin. ... Rifiuti is built to work on multiple platforms and will execute on Windows (through Cygwin), Mac OS X, Linux, and *BSD platforms." Since the original rifiuti (last updated 2004) is restricted to English version of Windows (fail to analyze any non-latin character), thus this rewrite. But it does more: * Supports Windows in any other languages besides English * Supports Vista and 2008 (they don't use INFO2 file any more) * Enables localization (that is, translatable) * More rigorous error checking * Supports output in XML format OPTIONS
These are plain text output options: -t --delimiter=STRING String to use as delimiter (TAB by default) -n --no-heading Don't show header -l --legacy-filename Show legacy filename instead of unicode -8 --always-utf8 Always show file names in UTF-8 encoding These are general application Options: -o --output=FILE Write output to FILE -x --xml Output in XML format (-t, -n, -l, -8 options will have no effect) --from-encoding=ENC The assumed file name character set when no unicode file name is present in INFO2 record (mandatory if INFO2 file is created by Win98, useless otherwise) COPYRIGHT
