    Those links sure are an eye opener :eek: didn't know MS had been smacked up in the courts over bullying/lying about these things. I bet most people aren't aware about it either :( I'll be spreading the word anyway now ;)

    Thanks for enlightening me :thumb:

    Ummn, look at the url..

    I don't think it has anything to do with microsoft, or browser detection.

    I know ;) but as i was searching for netsafe it came up, so i looked at it to see what it might be. I posted the screenie because i thought it was funny that they incorrectly identified my browser as IE instead of FF :D
