One other item is that some ISP's like us can't do the browser plug in option because of the "dial-up accelerator" products already embedded to the browser , installing paxfires technology on top of our accelerator plug in would just chew IE and its tcp stack. Also they state they only proxy A record lookups thus no mx lookups. Either way, it seems scary to me. But I do agree this is a revenue stream that Mickeysoft is probably making a ton off of. ------ Jason Nealis RCN (NASDAQ) RCNC ~ ~ On Tue, Feb 24, 2004 at 12:09:56PM -0800, Dan Hollis stated

Unlaterally forcing it upon everyone and breaking non www based apps is the wrong way to do it. -Dan
