Re: its: recursion

The single its didnt kill me but the multiple one did!   And now my entire
machine is playing up!  Its very slow in everything it does..  For example,
I cant see what I am typing right now unless I minimise Outlook Express, and
reopen it!  When I ran it also, it didnt crash IE itself, it took Windows
Explorer with it...  But then I guess IE and Windows Explorer are virtually
one and same anywayz :P

I'm running Win98, with IE4...  Now I am gonna hafta reboot..  *grumblez*
