You need IE4, use NT/95/98/3.1. 3 - FreeBSD is a Free Un*x, this means, system openness, open source... (I don't think M$ agrees with that) 4 - I sure don't want COM/DCOM object model (IE4 base layer) and all his security holes while we have an alternative as CORBA right now. (Kde, Gnome object models). Last, I use both NT and BSD. They're different, that's right, and that's why I use them both. No flames please. Eric MASSON "Bill A.
