Use firefox.

Wouldn't you have to learn to think in Russian?

:D :D :D

Vic

No. Actually firefox underlines a word, if you write the spelling wrong. It also gives you the correct spelling suggestions, if you right click on that word (just like in MS-Word). Really good feature. 8)

Another reason for using firefox is that it is NOT internet explorer (besides having great features).

I agree about Firefox. I use it on the Mac instead of Safari as well.

No. Actually firefox underlines a word, if . . .
Another FireFox reference:
The movie (or book) where an American pilot (Clint Eastwood) steals a high tech Russian fighter jet that is piloted with a helmet that can read the pilots thoughts if he is thinking in Russian.

Yeah, I remember the movie. Not the thought helmet, though.

That's what made it high tech. And it was very, very fast. Vic remembered.

If aging is the body rusting,
that's a good argument for anti-oxidants. (Love grape juice)
Personally, I swear by wine coolers.

Yep, you can't "foe" administrators. Neat addition to the site. Now I just have to find a foe...

If you block the starter of a topic, does the topic still exist to you :?: :?: :?:

Apparently not.
I just added a spammer to my "foe" list, and his threads still appear, but his messages within those threads don't.

I also clicked the 'lil "report this post" icon to make him disappear permanently the nest time a moderator logs in...

I wrapped a newspaper ’round my head
So I looked like I was deep

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.
Did you know that the word "gullible" is not in any dictionary?
