If it is indeed exactly the same then it's quite flaky.  But despite using
IE6 to get around (IE7 doesn't work on my system) it's all I currently have.
Even using Intellitamper to search for internal links, the search came up
with very little on the website.  Now based on what people here have been
saying to me and about me,
I am very disappointed. While it seems you might be friendly towards new
users, in my case you've indicated that you're not too particular to
experienced (but not "expert") DOS/Windows
users who are seeking to make a transition to Linux.

BTW I have tried the Windoze version of Firefox and - I'm not impressed
(yeah, yeah, what else is new?) so that's why I don't use it. Maybe under
Linux it will be different.....
