I have a worse problem. After unloading Semantic Anti-Virus and installing
Comcast's version of McAfee, the damn systems won't allow
IE or Firefox thru, they have annihilated the ieframe.dll and whatever other
critical dlls.. A denial of service core war btwn IE and Firefox apparently.
My VMware tcp stack still works though UBUNTU Konqueorer or for any other
VMware player browser. This is such garbage. Of course the new Vista PC I
have was pre-loaded with Vista, no restore disk.
What kind of a world do we live in when M$ and Firefox can get away with this
insanity? Should be a class action lawsuit and of course I get
no help from the offending parties.
Luckily I have other systems running Linux, Win 2000 and other versions of
OS's that like to work, like my N800.
Never had a problem with those. Anyone know a quick fix other than
re-loading a sane OS?

This is weird. I am sitting on my dad's computer running freshly
installed Windows XP (no service pack- vanilla version) and whenever I
try to open a site related to Firefox with IE, it fails to open.
However, all other sites are working fine.
