Ah thanks, that answers my question. :o)

On the MS defender comment. Well I can't say much other than not everyone
thinks that a company is entirely good or entirely bad. I have a more
granular outlook on things. Some things are done well, some things aren't.
That applies to all OSes. None of them do everything right.

Yo Jo!

Who am I to tell Bill Gates he is a liar and a perjurer?  He and his
employees, under oath, said IE is an indivisible part of the OS.  So it must
be so. :-)

I do not have an opinion since I gave up WinBlows years ago.  Just seemed
odd to me that an M$ defender would not be going with the party line and
suggesting the IE is not part of the OS.  Sorta thought that was obvious
from the context which you deleted, but some people are clueless and can not
be helped.

So are you saying you truly believe IE to be an integral part of the 
OS that without it the OS would not be useable or would fail entirely 
and believe MS implicitly or are you just trying to be a sassy PITA?

I suggest you re-read about the M$ anti-trust trial.  This was 
certainly NOT the M$ legal positiion.
