Thanks for the mozilla pointer.

MSIE with SP2 is now crippled.  It no longer shows file source.

Not only does Mozilla cope perfectly with that CSS test, but it displays
source in a -much- better way than MISE's notepad.  It can wrap lines
and does html colouring.

Also the address line is a google search box.

Brilliant, and I am glad to leave MSIE behind.
