      And goodbye to how much more of your hard-disk? reliability? Any ActiveX support yet? Shockwave, etc? Hard-disk space is cheap and I've got plenty of it... ;) Reliability you say... now let me think how many security updates did I have to install due to using IE... yeah! Shockwave and Flash is supported, no probs there! As far as ActiveX goes I'm allergic to it, IE or no IE... :) / L-G --- $> cd /pub $> more beer

      Whats better, a software company continually releasing security updates or not? Just a question. ;)

                I live quite happily without Java or ActiveXcrement enabled in IE.

                              Actually, no. I was told by my first boss that the best products you will ever do will be the ones you never hear from again. So I did my best to write and build such products. I never had a call, though all my products were used for their full intended lifetime. Just lucky, I guess. Or thorough. "Knock, knock." "Who's there?" "Recursion." "Recursion who?" "Knock, knock..."
