thanks for the news, as always (*^%**&(* microsoft won't let me download manually with firefox... so i guess i'm waiting for the automatic updates thing to tell me there are new updates.
Yeah, too all those that don't know already every 2nd Tuesday of the month is Microsoft's 'Patch Tuesday' where they come out with more headaches for IT administrators like myself! ARGH!

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(galaxee @ Aug 10 2006, 06:41 PM) [snapback]301244[/snapback]</div> Galaxee and everyone else I just got the IE Tab extension for Firefox. Since it is actually running IE inside Firefox, everything that demands IE works! You can even switch on the fly, so if you notice a page isn't working right, you right click the tab and go with IE. The info is at http://ietab.mozdev.org It definitely cures the "Damn I'm in the wrong program and how do I get my stuff to go over to IE." ...grumble...micro$quish... Lisa
