To each his own I suppose.

I use FF and I have had that problem twice. I used IE and I never had that problem. I would switch back to IE but I am lazy and I like linkifier.

Very strange. Not as strange as the fact that no one on the Mozilla forums, CNET forums etc is not experiencing the same problem?

you're wrong to say this.... it is true active x will only run on a microsoft browser supported by a microsoft os... however, zlob trojans can get into the system if they're written in java
