I've got to say how amazed I am at the willingness of all you people to toe the party line. For what it's worth, I'm with SafeT on this one.
I've had my computer for nearly a year now and for the first six months, every problem I had originated from Microsoft products (except for a couple of problems with Symantec, but that's another story).
Six months in, I changed to Firebird(...fox) and Thunderbird. In the subsequent six months I've had no problems. Maybe it's coincidence. I honestly can't see why, after having tried either of the above, someone would go back to IE or OE.
It's also galling that, even though I don't use IE I still have to download security updates for it just because I have it on my system. Why can't I uninstall it?
Before anyone asks, I have XP on my system because that's what it came with. I was a complete novice when I bought this system. Rest assured, when it comes time to update to Longhorn, it'll be Linux for me.
I am greatful to Bill Gates. I acknowledge that nobody else has done more to promote personal computing. However, I also respect Renault for inventing the car, but I wouldn't have one. They've all got fat arses.:o)
It wisnae' me
