>Oh, BTW, the title of my original posting was supposed to be "Internet 'standards'", but I guess the UT did not like me putting a word in quotes in the title, so it stripped it out completely. Hence the lame title.

Actually, I also have an afterthought - there IS a solution. There's a place where we can all set Internet right. It's a dialog(ue) in the control panel in the last few versions of Windowses, called "internet properties".

I have just discovered that we have this enormous power, each one of us, to set the properties of the whole Internet. I am still sort of numb... is it possible that I'm the only one who saw this?

I still dare not open that dialog(ue) - what if I misclick and ruin the whole world?
