One of my sins is using (also) Win XP, now, before you flame me and tell me XP is works of the devil, I would like to express my sincere agreement with this fact.
However, today I recieved a CERT-advisory telling me to install some patch due to security issue. I opened my mozilla, and entered the URL. While the mozilla accessed the link (http://microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS03-023.asp) (using proxy, as always) I had enough time to minimize it, start internet explorer, copy the link into explorer. Explorer, using the same proxy finished showing the web first. Actually, I could see the page in explorer before mozilla changed the url (to some internal microsoft.com url of the form something.asp?url=omething-else.asp, go figure...). Now, I know that mozilla is faster on my conmputer with my netowrk (same proxy, I mentioned?). So the question is this an explorer optimization, or microsoft.com just identifies mozilla's and other not-native browsers and gets stuck? -- Orr Dunkelman, [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Man is the only animal that blushes--or has reason to." --- Mark Twain Spammers: http://vipe.technion.ac.il/~orrd/spam.html ================================================================= 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]
