Tim,
Meanwhile, Microsoft has acknowledge that all lines to its Redmond site are clogged by people dumping Navigator and trying to download Explorer.
Are you sure they are trying to get Explorer ? it's *very* difficult to buy a PC nowadays that comes without it. My guess is that people are still trying to get the vital bugfixes for NT, IE, Win95,...
It was a joke. As you are a non-native English speaker (Belarus?), my subtlety may not have been as obvious as it would be to any reasonably-bright American or Brit. In any case, I use a Macintosh and Explorer 3.0, and no browser came with my Mac when I bought it in '94. Many machines of various flavors were sold prior to Explorer or Navigator being bundled. Me, I have no immediate plans to switch to Explorer. --Tim May There's something wrong when I'm a felon under an increasing number of laws.
