Re: More on web browsers

Lief,

My only problem with IE is that it is the Windows standard and requires Windows
to operate.  This fly's against the purpose of free communications and open
systems which was intended by the creation of the internet.

Windows specific functions, IMHO, is the same predatory practice that made
Microsoft attempt to highjack Java.

I prefer to play in the sand box with someone who wants to get along, not just
the bully.
