well to make it short: at the High School I'm currently attending here in the US the Netadmin installed a win prog that should prevent a user from doing anything except starting the IE to view the online curriculum (CISCO) Oh well, no need to say that this was just an attempt - the M$ Office Toolbar and IE itself enabled us to do evrything we wanted to. IE just "talks" too much. Having it in a (corporate) environment meens that every webpage you are visiting sees what kind of Hardware/Software/Cookies(some have passwords)/... you have. I'd recommend Netscape and fortify which enables you to get your stuff done wayyyyy more secure. Besides that IE crashes on me quite often not saying that Netscape is free of bugs - but more usable in terms of lockups. I dont have to mention the difference between Outlook and ANY other e-mail client, do I ? hope this answering your Q a little cheers sasa -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
