Microsoft (gasp! I mentioned the evil empire by name8^), ONLY works well with MicroS**ft. I just received a support call asking me why explorer won't work with our Netscape Proxy server. While I haven't had time to look in to this, I suspect my response will be that its due to MicroS**t and that explorer is not a standard product supported by the Management. Is it a co-incidence that I got this problem report just as I was reading your news posting? I think not! My personal preference is for a Netscape , NeXT, Informix combo. But hey! What do I know? -Mikey
