Another one lost to Firefox.<BR/><BR/>Well, I might as well tempt the fates and recommend you take a look at OpenOffice.org. I've used that software exclusively instead of Micro$oft Office for years and love it.<BR/><BR/>I also dumped Adobe Acrobat Reader (another bloated behemoth) for Foxit Reader (open source, free, and fast).<BR/><BR/>There's a lot of other free or nearly free open source software that is well supported and works as well (or better) than the mainstream items and won't hit your wallet near as hard.<BR/><BR/>Check out http://sourceforge.net for the largest catalog of opensource stuff. You have to register, but they're not intrusive.<BR/><BR/>Well, enough of all that. I hope you enjoy Firefox. I find it easier to use than IE and less hassle too.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>DaveDave Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15038109966699072504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9432310.post-30062266278363838562009-03-26T19:55:00.000-06:002009-03-26T19:55:00.000-06:00Hi,I took your advise and downloaded Firefox.
