This is bloody amazing.  MS can't figure out how to deal with MIME headers 
that have been in use for five years.  Instead, they'd rather go around and 
figure out how to insert their own ads into other people's web content. 

I just commited the meta-tag to turn off MSIE 6.0 smart tags into every 
sqwebmail generated page, even though I do not believe that I should be 
required to do this.  I'm that close to blocking MSIE 6.0 from accessing the 
download page, telling people that MSIE 6.0 will remain blocked until MS 
gets rid of smart tags.
