Microsoft bashing is fun, as it was when I was trying OS2, but MS Explorer is a
good program.
When I was dual booting Win 98 and Linux, I was using it. When I
realized, from mail lists, that html was a problem for some people, I changed
my settings so that I sent text only by default.
I agree

Opera browser expects to have a Linux version soon.
This page has detailed information about the Linux version progress.

The Microsoft Internet Explorer for Unix seems to be only for two non Linux
systems, according to the MS download pages.
Has anyone tried to use this program with Linux?

David,
Thanks for the explanation. I discovered Midnight Commander but thought
that I had actually opened and expanded the tar file by clicking on it.
Those questions are not dumb to a new newbie.

On Mandrake 6.0 KDE desktop, I can move icons into folders (eg:
updates to a Mandrake folder).
However, the original icons reappear on the main desktop, although
copies are in the folders.
I have tried, both as user and root, to delete the unwanted items,
but they reappear when the computer is

HI Mike,
Thanks for your observations.
I have set up Netscape for sending text only.
I'll try that for awhile. It doesn't look as nice on my screen while I

I would be interested in short tutorials, geared to the time I take to

Thanks for the helpful information on DiskDrake and the hints on

I read the review earlier and thought it very good. I just saw this boxed
