According to http://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-2439013,00.html
Opera has a new special version which "messes" with MSN.com, translating its text into "swedish chef" language [1]. See also http://www.opera.com/pressreleases/en/2003/02/14/index.dml Apparently, this is a protest against Microsoft's insistance on creating software that makes it easy to create broken unstandard pages that will only work with Microsoft's Internet Explorer, and with making their own pages deliberately send broken pages to users of specific browsers.

By the way, it's interesting to note that the reason why Netscape decided to make Mozilla free-software was because Netscape's main businness was servers, and people were beginning to turn away from Netscape servers because Microsoft, with it's huge monopoly in browsers, was beginning to invent their own web standards So maybe in order to stop their browser monopoly our (free software people) goal should be to push a free server (including all the ASP,VB, and other crap that MS developers love to use) to replace Microsoft's? -- Nadav Har'El | Sunday, Feb 16 2003, 14 Adar I 5763 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |The 3 stages of sex: Tri-weekly, try http://nadav.harel.org.il |weekly, try weakly. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
