Then you have missed the whole darn dock. M$ HAD to goto that pop-up blocker, but, have you ever noticed you cannot see the weather map change at weather.com when using internet exploder, and pop-up on? It BLOCKS ALL forms of inner window changes, even the ones you asked for.

I still stand by my original assesment. If open-source software was used as widely as MS products, you would have just as many exploits and vulnerabilities targeting open source as you do MS.

Open source provides us with an alternative, and a 'mow better' and safer bargin for the free dollar.

There's no point in hacking software that only a minority use. No matter how securely something is written or coded, somebody somewhere will find a way to hack it.

Really? Take a look around, you sir, are the only one on this topic either; A) Using internet exploder, or B) The only one who will openly admit to using it in public. There are hackers, don't get your drawers by Gates in an uproar now, but FF and Opera can be patched and distributed before the evening news can report it.
Don't be concerned with the market, that is a monopoly if there ever was, will be, or ever possibly could have been, and unfortunately it ain't gonna cahnge anytime soon. No matter what browser you use, M$ still owns you through that little bitty thing called an OS!
