#1 Fox / Beeb had an initial headline of 100 killed/wounded - hopefully the usual hyperbole. (Anyone get annoying pop-up ads from Fox - am I infected?)

#2 Use Mozilla or FireFox. Trash IE.

#3 Ditto:

Haven't had a pop-up since the switch to Mozilla.

#5 I "hardly" ever get them but there are ways. It is true Mozilla is a friend. Seeing as it's all I use it's great.

When I first saw the 100 deat figure at the BBC I was skeptical. I still am as 6 inaccurate mortar rounds might have to get lucky. 6 well positioned rounds based on inside information would not need to be so lucky. I am holding my breath. This stuff is being done for US pre election consumption. The terrorists know if Kerry is elected they are home free.

La parole de Jacques Chirac est comme la diarrhée de brûlure. Essai global de bidon de Kerry de John mon âne.

#7 Since the last MS service pack, the popups have been blocked in IE as well boys.

#9 The BBC has toned their story down considerably. 80 wounded is still quite serious and many more could die.

Thats wonderful the IE is catching up to Mozilla. I installed all the service packs for W2K this weekend but I rarely ever boot up NT anymore. I dont need to unless I want to play Urban Terror. I wouldn't even need to do that but I am too lazy to update my nVidia X windows module. My quake video and audio are all messed up if I try to play Quake3Arena under linux currently.

#10 SPoD

I don't understand your sentences about Chirac and Kerry. And I am French. Post/send me the English versions and I will translate.

BTW: Penguinistas for Bush.

It says volumes about an outfit that won't do a damned thing about problems with their wares until faced with widespread dissatisfaction along with the resulting user flight when something better makes itself available.

#12 Will the new IE come with tabs too? Still got a lot of ground to catch up on Mozilla. IE sucks. Sucks big time.

#13 The fish is evil.
My wife the French teacher warned me. It's not to polite. The speech (words) of Jaques Chirac are like burning diarrhea. Something like. John Kerry can globally test my ass.

Yea and I use Mandrake Linux 99% of the time actually. I belong to Mandrake Club. What can I say I like a nice bloated desktop install.

Yes all my Penguins are Bushies too.
