But IE wasn't working right?
That's what you came here with isn't it?
You had a problem with IE but you don't the sensible thing and give them a decent browser.
So long as people like you fix MS bugware they will prevail.
YOU are the problem.

Sure, so how do I download Mozilla without a functioning browser in the first place ?

I totally agree! Oh and since you mentioned a problem you had with Mozilla HibeeBoy, go to this page, and tell me that you can view it fine with IE. Oh, and that's simple CSS Level 2 we're talking about. No Java script or anything more involved.
Oh and since we're at it, visit this page, for some examples of what Mozilla can do.

I don't understand ? I explained something Mozilla didn't do but somehow it makes up for it by doing something else ?
I'm not here to defend one browser over another. You scream choice but only if the choice is in line with your way of thinking. Hey, I think Mozilla is fine for what I do (still no spellcheck in mail I see) and that is now what I have installed and use at work in a window$ environment. At home I use Linux because I am anti M$ for many reasons.

So where you work there is only one PC with a browser?
If you were at all bothered you would have USED ANOTHER PC to download the browser.
You can put a browser on a PC that didn't download it you know.
Perhaps where you work should employ somebody with the rudiments of IT under their belt.
YOU are still the problem.

Whatever. I just didn't have time for fucking about at that time.
I have been in IT for quite sometime so don't tell me what my job entails. My employers already do that. My employers don't give a toss about the politics of M$ vs Linux. It so happens, I do give a toss. Changing the users browser from Exploder to Mozilla doesn't really achieve anything in the scheme of eradicating M$. All it does is put Mozilla on a Window$ machine where 9 times out of 10, the fuckwit user will continue to use Exploder becaue I can't remove Exploder from the operating system. Do you see, the bigger picture is eradicating Window$ from the desktop. My powers only stretch so far and my job entails a bit more than dictating the browser a user should use. Longer term, I would like to replace Window$ with Linux but that is a bit more involved than just installing Mozilla on a fucked up laptop for a user who probably will not even use the laptop while he is "on the road" anyway. This is why I came to this website, to pick up ideas and insight into Eradicating Microsoft. I think I may have come to the wrong place.

I was trying to use the help feature in Mozzila browser, bolloxed the whole thing up. All Mozilla applications froze, e-mail, browser and help. Not only that, but it managed to bollox up Exploder too. Easy enough to do that I'm sure.
I'm not looking for excuses not to use an alternative browser but for fuck's sake, surely the help feature should work ?
