&#147I noticed you failed to answer the second part of the question regarding MSFT replacing Nav icons and links with thier own.&#148

I did not fail to answer it&#151you failed to comprehend. I said Compaq is free to do what they want inre: installing/deinstalling browsers. If you can't understand what that means&#151sorry, comprehension inabilities aren't my problem. It would stop at OS tampering of course.and you can only sell that argument if you can actually prove IE=OS. That hasn't been done yet&#151by you or the Big Guy in Redmond.

&#147Maybe you should employ a better browser:-) It works fine for me, try www.msft.IE!&#148

That doens't seem to be the problem. It didn't work last night-period. It opens this morning.albeit so incredibly slow with either browser as to be a completely irritating. Might as well be down. So what is it that I'm supposed to be looking for here? You had implied there's something special going on here which can't be done with NN. Where's the beef? We already know about IE specific and NN specific code&#151so is there a point you're trying to make?

&#147I can sing that song as well, over 2,000 html pages written&#148

Maybe I should try one of the other 1999. So far it seems like you forgot the melody. Besides, you're trying to make a point out of me disussing what I do.

You'll re-read it of course, and note that I was offering up why I would have a lot of browsers, and why I'm familiar with them in response to your suggestion that I try a different one. I wasn't making an issue of being a web designer. I can see from your page that you aren't making an issue of being one either.
