I was just browsing through PC World, when I noticed this article.

I'm sticking to Linux for work and windows 2k for gaming for the foreseeable future!

I think I'm about to delete my internet in windows. I use it for gaming only anyway. Oh and for my ICT class, cause my teacher created a nice asp site which doesn't run on firefox But well I don't look there much anyway.
LOL still I feel a bit for m$ having to make sure the most computer-illiterate people have reasonable secure computers. Or maybe it's just that their definitions are screwed up so you think you're fine. Local network = internet ROFL that's a real good one |

That's funny that the ASP site doesn't run on firefox, since ASP code runs on the server and should only output HTML and javascript etc.
Hmmm I guess it must be ASP.NET which creates some non-standard HTML components that only IE can display properly - bastard MS!

Btw it looks like I have to review my original point of view. I don't feel for any writers of an OS that causes a kernel failure when I open a bad word document. So far my half hour of joy with windows today. Happy to be back on linux. |

ASP sends out different code to 'uplevel' and 'downlevel' browsers. Downlevel browsers are fed HTML 3.2, no style sheets, etc (because that's all a downlevel browser can support...). Problem is, the default configuration on this... uplevel is IE. Downlevel is everything else...

Yet one more reason why I rely on my own Firewall and not on M$ for their's. They've just proven too many times that their programs are crap for me to trust them with a firewall.

For me it isn't so much a bug in the firewall as this little slip:
