IE Help Needed

[Curt Harms]

Wes, you need to keep IE because some web pages and sites won't work on firefox.

and when I find a site like that, I let the site's publisher know. Just got an overnight letter from a division president at Honeywell saying they're working to implement W3C standards.

So far I've been lucky and haven't run into any problem pages. I know it will happen though. Neil, thanks for the heads-up, I'll go back and take a look at that. Right now I have just about everything set to "ask first" before accessing the web. That way I figure I'll at least know who has done what, when and to whom.

I bought a couple copies of AVG w/firewall and so far like how proactive it has been. This compared to McAfee that we had to manually run scans and updates (could have been settings). I also like that AVG will run the scan in the background (which it is doing right now) without a noticable drag on the computer. (I got the scoop on AVG by searching SMC posts )

Thanks again for all of the help. It's good to know so many are willing to share their smarts so freely on a topic not related to WW.

I'd recommend ZoneAlarm Anti-Spyware (http://www.zonelabs.com/store/conten...en&lid=ho_zaas). It includes a good firewall. The basic firewall is what I use, and it's free.
