Re: [WEB400] Mozilla makes huge stride towards competing with IE

["Brad Stone" <brad@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Once half the people who use and monkey with IE start using
and trying to break Mozilla, you'll find security holes
there too.

I finally did get ibm's page working as well.  On another
PC I tried it and it directed me to the JRE to download.
 Installed it on both machines and now it's working fine.

Of course, I got another tray Icon (java) that I had to
remove.. I hate tray icons.  :)
