looks good

I just use a Mac, never had to worry ;)

just trying it out - rebuilding this machine over the weekend anyway.

nice to see it supports server 2003

hmmm - nice idea to have a quick "browser hijack restore" function - but it sets everything to MSN

[aido]

That is interesting actually Matt, why would anyone want to do surfing on a server if you can avoid it - it's always bad news :o

hehehehe

you've never been stuck on a :tsktsk: ed up server, desparately trying to find a solution?

[aido]

Never have that problem in the datacenter's mate ;)

Saying that though I was once bored and just manually configured the server to use the proxy

Wouldn't dare nowadays, can't look at the net without a popup blocker!!

well I got norton 2005, xp service pack 2 and Ive always used firefox and thunderbird since i set this system up and when i run the spyware checker It didnt find a single thing related to spyware, just picked up on VNC being installed and warned me that it could be used for bad if i didnt install it myself

so not a bad little program :)

and nice to know Firefox does its job :)

DAMN YOU IE, DAMN YOOOOOOUUUUU
