Yes because you are still running MS code even though you are running it in an emulator. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 * Only reply to the list please* "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge

I recently came across, and installed, a plug-in for (Windows) Firefox, which I think also works in Mozilla. Unfortunately, I can't remember what it's called. It's supposed to make Firefox read stuff designed so that only IE can read it. Not sure if it actually works, since you only find out when you _can't_ read something. Also don't know if it works on Linux Firefox versions, but I don't like IE, I think it's a hazard, so it might be worth following up. --doug -- Internal Virus Database is out-of-date.

but IE always crashed before being usable. Is there someone that has been able to do it ? Is there webdeveloppers around ? :-)

I have Crossover Office installed. This is a commercial front-end to WINE. The CodeWeavers people are very good at getting MS Office and other major applications running under WINE. While I don't generally use MSIE, I currently have it up and I have downloaded and installed Service Pack 1.

Not all bad since Codeweavers gives most of the code back to the wine project. So in a way you are supporting wine. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 * Only reply to the list please* "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
