<1. When I clicked on a link in exchange mail, it tried to run the deinstalled IE. It then put up a message asking for a different browser, but wouldn't actually run it, crashing instead. This isn't always the pattern, but the result seemed to always be the same for me, can't use the links from MS other apps.> That is called "BETA" software. <2. When I installed netscape and then MS VC++ 5.0 on windows 95 after having disabled (not removed) IE, it launched the internet connection via modem while I was browsing some docs, but I was not able to use Netscape to actually look at them.> If you think that is bad, try using NSCP's Live Wire development system or Enterprise server with IE. You won't even get that far (and these are not beta products).
