dydahl, "I have personally fought this problem, too - it MSIE behaviour makes it almost impossible to create a http-based download site for files with special file extensions, that works well on both Windows and Macintosh and on different browsers. If it wasn't for the MSIE bug, we would not have had to move our files to an FTP server. Now it shows the the bug is also an exploit." Any idea how much these "incidents" add to your Total Cost of Ownership? Multiply this by the number of servers and it must run into billions in unnecessary costs for businesses. A cost passed on to the consumers, right? In comparison, what is your experience with the Unix servers to solve these problems? Cheers, Norm
