No, that could be an IE problem. We plan on addressing a lot of these smaller issues in a future release. Our focus right now for this release is to make it 100% the same as IE 5.0 in terms of functionality, and better than IE 5.0 in terms of reliability. -----Original Message----- From: Steve Sell [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 24, 2001 6:00 AM To: IE Mailing List Subject: Re: Favorites Bar and LCDs -- can't something be done?

On my screen I see white around the edges of all the text when it's selected -- something's not happening correctly there.
