I even provided a lot of information and a suggested message to give, in order to avhieve a higher liklihood of people crossing over. You catch more flies with a spoonful of honey than a ton of shit. Think very carefully about what it is you're saying by denying access to a person becasue they don't know any better. What will they know about alternatives after getting a message saying they're barred because the browser that was most likely the de facto install when they bought their machine isn't good enough in *your* book? Why don't you email Tim Berners-Lee (spelling?) and ask him his opinion of your elitism? After all, he could have been richer than Bill Gates if he hadn't set "world wide web" free. And please don't bother commenting on the fact I'm posting using a MS prodcut; I just couldn't be arsed to reboot my machine into SuSE after my daughter had finished nattering to her mates, using MS Messenger. The whole point about alternatives is that that they're alternatives, poeple can choose for themselves. Like I said in my opening sentence: you catch more files with a spoonfull of honey . . .
