it happens Gillian, happened to my husbands Aunt. Not a common accurance but is possible, thats how I found out about it.
 
The whole exploding water thing is more likely to happen in new containers. With no scratches or imperfections to help water form, it can spit out how water.

I wouldn't use regular windex to clean the inside of a microwave. There are microwave cleaners available, but a bit of steam will work fine.
 
I guess that is why I have never had a problem- my pyrex measuring cup that I heat water in is beat to crap, LOL!!!

I guess I put my small batter bowl in when I make jello and it is new...
 
just a note on the micro boiled water. You should make certain the top/opening is larger. The smaller it is the more pressure that will build.
 
I had a customer share that she uses her Nylon Pan Scrapers for removing wallpaper. She says the pointed edge is just right to get up under the paper. So, there's another use. Great subject! Love the files!
