Using Mozilla 0.9.5 to go to the msn website http://www.msn.com I get
the following disturbing message.

Has this been happening long? Didn't see any threads discussing this.

Who are Microsoft to decide if I like the way their website looks with
Mozilla? (I don't mind a warning but blocking access altogether seems
rather, ummm, monopolistic.)
