Better yet, state "Using IE compromises your anonymity. Click _here_ for more information and alternate browsers. If you're sure nothing you're doing on freenet can get you in trouble, click _here_ and we won't bother you again." IE is completely, totally and UTTERLY useless on freenet. The warning was immature, but in no way should we fail to convey that they are neither secure NOR anonymous on freenet when using IE. Period. End of Discussion. There's just too many things in it that are broken-by-design (as opposed to stupid bugs, which all browsers have) that make it impossible to secure. --Dan _______________________________________________ devl mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
