I didn't think about that. I don't think it will cripple anything. I have
used Opera with AOL before, doing just as you are doing.

I understand. It would bother me, not being able to get it to work.

Well, thats odd. I don't know how IE can communicate with your ISP if no
DNS is specified. Maybe your dialer can determine that. Trumpet can't, as
far as I know. Call your ISP and ask them what the DNS is.

The use of cookies was done in the name of security as well, at Hotmail.

I believe the message is generated by Opera. I get it once in a while.
