What really burns my ass is that in this day and age we are still being forced to use this silly bullshit for programs like "flash" and others. I know that this will piss off some people; however, when someone asks, "Why do you use Microsoft instead of open-source software", you can point to crap like this being an excellent reason. IMHO, the only reason for crap like this is because it is easier to ignore the problem than fix it. -- Jerry ♔ Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
