I don't use the thing at all, so I don't see it anywhere. But Nadya does.

Oh, so there's a normal internet and Microsoft Internet. That's the one internet where every user can set the properties of the whole internet in their control panel :).

>>Just saw the pasted error text in message #1346602, and all of a sudden... why is it called "Windows Internet Explorer"? Is there a Mac and a Linux version? Hold it... let's see what the wikipedia has to say. There's a "Internet Explorer Macintosh Edition", but no "Internet Explorer Windows Edition", and sure enough no "Internet Explorer Linux Edition" nor "Linux Internet Explorer".
