There is a much simpler way than all this messing about, just IE5. This is something I feel very strongly about and find most people who use NS are those who are anti-microsoft. In my opinion there is nothing much wroung any of the microsoft products, I have never had any problems with them. ASK ANYONE IF THEY WOULD LIKE EVERY COMPUTER THE WORLD OVER TO BE ABLE TO TALK WITH ONE ANOTHER AND THEY ALL SAY "YES" THEY JUST DON'T WANT BILL GATES TO PROVIDE THE MEANS TO DO SO.
