Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but having used both a lot, IMHO the Exploder is annoying and dangerous. BTW, is this the beginning of the end for Duke Neukom?

Reg - None of the browsers are very reliable, but IE is MUCH more functional than Communicator. You've said this quite a bit. What exactly can it do that Communicator can't? What can it do better? I've only used IE once, so I'm really not that familiar with it. -justinb

>>>>None of the browsers are very reliable, but IE is MUCH more functional than Communicator. The last time I installed IE (last month) the GUIs on all my other programs went crazy. I had to reinstall Windows on that (customer) box. I read the release version fixes that. But much more functional? I don't think so. It doesn't run real Java, and few care about ActiveX on the net so far. Both of them browse and handle email. Roughly equal, as I said. Reg, since your favorite stock has fallen off it's perch, the question is now, how far will it fall. My question to you, as a stock market guru: MSFT: $100 a share by March? Is it time to buy puts?
