You seem to be jumping to conclusions. How do you know that Seamonkey was denied because Seamonkey users are presumed bad? Have you considered the business may have other reasons? They may only want browsers accessing that they have tested their pages with thinking it will cut down on support calls? Does Seamonkey on Linux support ActiveX? Sometimes webpages tell you that you need ActiveX and sometime they only let in IE. Mostly that tells me to do business somewhere else. I don't see the need assume malice on anyone's part. _______________________________________________ Opensim-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/opensim-users
