    Oh hell.  Wanna know something funny?  Ritlabs did the same thing a lot of
people do in this regard.  They created a dialog and there is a checkbox there
to turn off that dialog if so desired.  OK, I can respect that.  Don't like
the feature, don't like the verbage, but at least they let you turn it off.

    Now, I have to ask.  If you uncheck the dialog and later want that feature
how are you going to turn it back on if you can never get the dialog to come
up to check that box again?

    It isn't in the options, tools or account properties.  I just checked.
Amazingly enough this is a common problem.  If I recall correctly either
Netscape or OE, when they first implemented it on the "do you want us to check
to see if we're the default browser" dialog, I turned it off.  Later I wanted
it to check since I dropped Opera for a while.  I couldn't get it to come back
nor was there a way to set it as the default browser anywhere.  I had to
uninstall and reinstall to get it as default.

    That almost makes up for the subject dialog, almost.  When are they going
to do the same for delete?  Do you know how annoying it is to try to delete a
thread with the mouse and CNTL-SHIFT-<del button> doesn't work?  :)

    Inflation.
