RE: LINUX Workstations

 
 "extensions" is closer to the mark Joe if one accepts that Microsoft still
practices their long held marketing strategy of "embrace, extend,
exterminate".   The "IE-specific event filtering capabilities" you mention
are designed for only one purpose and that purpose isn't to make a better
browser.   By swallowing their bait you are only furthering the eventual
demise of your own product.

The "proprietary Windows extensions" you talk about could just as easily
be called "IE-specific event filtering capabilities", and that would be
much closer to the mark. ....
