Mistrust Microsoft products. They are the core of the problem. And there are lots of alternatives that are free, and better, and faster, and lots smaller. I make the offer again. Anyone that would like help installing a non-Microsoft browser, i.e. Mozilla, Opera, etc., or a non-Microsoft mail client, i.e. Pegasus, Eudora, etc., please contact me. tom On 18 Jan 2004 at 19:54, gary hradek wrote: > Jack, > It appears you have a sense of humor and you are > quick witted. > What I saw with my windows link looked very > differenet on a linux broswer if that helps. > Three different web pages for ebay, citibank and > paypal.
