I'm not exactly sure how this is related to the Boeing 747, but I know
several persons who have installed IE only and only because many web
sites didn't show in other browsers. Incidently, most of those sites
were "programmed" with FrontPage. The less technically caring users
tended to think that those other browsers were crap. I tend to believe
that this was the intent of MS.

I use Firefox. The guy who put together our football pool website did it for
IE. Works great in IE, has a few glitches in Firefox - like submitting picks
online.

It took me a while to figure out a (default browser) work-around that didn't
include me copy/pasting the football link - after opening IE. No matter what
I tried, things opened in Firefox.

Then it dawned on me, both browsers open to Google. My solution was to set
the Blue E's Home page to my football pool and run everything else with
(default) Firefox. Problem solved - I was quite proud of myself.

Yep.

Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you quarrel with your neighbor.
It makes you shoot at your landlord. And it makes you miss him.
