Um, which ones? I've used them all, FINISHED, betas available to the general
public, and betas not available to the general public, on both the Win9x and
WinNT series OSs, and none of them did any hosing of anything.

Yes, but Mozilla has been in beta for almost four years now, and still sucks,
while IE6 is, hell, has it even been a year since 5.5, and does not suck.

has ANY IE "killed my OS".
