Just my humble opinion, but inviting MS to start porting to the world of free-unixes seems like you'd be inviting a thief into your living room... personally I can't stand IE, but that's me :) If having problems/dissatisfaction with netscape 4.61, why not compile a lower version? If I remember correctly, there are 4 or 5 different versions available in the ports collection? --John >> I'd be interested in an IE for FreeBSD, I'm somewhat ashamed at the fact >> that I do like their browser better than the NS counterparts on Windows, >> but be it as it may...I do... :-) >> >> Chris >> > >I agree with you.
