Hee hee! So, I take it nothing can be done about Authenticode? I've been using FF (FireFox) on my test PC for a while, and while it has LOADS of features IE does NOT have, it also unfortunately leaves out *NEEDED* features that IE has! (You ought to see my rants on FF ;-) . There's also still too many bugs in it that they refuse to fix. I've opened several bug reports at Bugzilla only to be met with nothing but resistance. I've tried .9.3, 1.0PR and 1.0RC1, but not RC2 yet. They've all had the same annoying bugs so I think it's waste to also try RC2 at this time. Hopefully the final release will have them fixed. -Clint
Happy Holidays to all & God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ) http://ComputersCustomBuilt.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hugh Vandervoort" I gotta' admit there's nothing better than a good Clint Rant. I've often felt like nuking MS, but Clint puts it in words better than anybody. Easy answer, Clint. Firefox. ********************************************************* I'm PAST the point of being FED UP with every file I try to open giving me this BS about "do you want to run this file?" cr*p. YES, I want to run it, if I wouldn't have, I WOULD NOT HAVE CLICKED IT! I'm sick of having to click every file twice instead of once to read it. It happens with .exe's, .reg, .vbs, etc. etc. M$ and their continuous unrelenting nagging prompts can go to hell. FYI, http://blogs.msdn.com/tonyschr/archive/2004/03/21/93430.aspx . My dialog box doesn't look like that, I don't have all those buttons. All I have is "Run", "Cancel", and of course when I keep UNCHECKING the @[EMAIL PROTECTED]&! box for "Always ask before opening this file", that evidently only works for THAT file! As usual, a search on this also gives no results AT ALL. Not a single hit on how to "disable authenticode". I even went so far as to add "My Computer" to the Internet Zones, allowing EVERYTHING in its zone, and setting everything to "Enable". Didn't work. I even checked all the boxes in Internet Options regarding running active content on the PC. Also didn't work. In other searches for "disable authenticode" with NO quotes, I see that .NET may have to be installed to disable it, and I'm not installing that .NET garbage. There's got to be a way of stopping this harassment. ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
