For all of you who use Linux occasionally and have Konqueror, Mozilla or Netscape; Here is a buggy website. It only affects Linux. The reason I believe, is a line that checks Flash 5 version and windows registry key. If you go to the site designers (vpi.net) page you will find that their flash programming is fine and they claim to support Linux.

This is a classic example of a bloated M$ banner blasted site with too many cookies, java script and poorly done flash.

Sites like this make it difficult for me to move my kids away from windows. The webmaster for vpi claims to have fixed the problem but it persists. I was told to install a newer version of Flash. NOT!

My Flash works just fine when I go Here

You obviously don't understand what it's like to maintain computers in a home with kids that frequent badly coded websites, use Hotmail, MSN and download Gb's of crap. You were not forced by anyone to *CLICK* on the link, if you were curious as to what this sites bad code does to a Linux browser, that was your option. This post was put in All Things Microsoft>>Applications>>Infinite Browser Spawn. Very Clear what was going to happen if you chose to *CLICK*. Content of the page is irrelevant.

I personally do not care for the commercialized twins either, but when you have a daughter that's into all that hype maybe you'll understand. Maybe when your irresponsible teenage kids regularly screw up your network with all the Windows crap, you'll understand. Maybe when you try to get your kids to kick the IE habit and run into malignant web sites such as this, you'll understand.

Web Masters that code with only Windows IE in mind is a trend we must all deal with. This was the example I had to deal with. Your short sighted comments are unacceptable and an apology is in order. Otherwise let's continue to debate...<Graemlins Omitted>

A review of the site mentioned here:

In my (Not so humble!) opinion this is a very overworked site. The start page looks more like a newspaper with all the information in small boxes on the left, big newsflashes in the middle and ad-like features on the right and bottom. Too much information to me. I thought they would have hired better webmasters than that.

BTW, how can they still be called "America

I have a solution for this problem. On my comp under windows my kids can't find Internet Explorer even though it is there. I removed every single link to it from the desktop. My kids use Mozilla 0.9.9 under windows when they are usng my comp.

I know how it is they are used to using IE at school but if it isn't available at home then if they wish to access the net they "will" use what is available or they simply won't access the net at home.

Further they learn Mozilla very quickly. It is actually easier to use than IE once you begin getting used to it.
