Do you ever wonder why people think that you are a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic? Graham Linehan is Irish and he lives in London. Also if it's a free country why should anybody need to leave for voicing a different opinion to the rabid dogs of the right?

So by the same token, why should ill informed right wing Americans feel that they can criticise the NHS with impunity?

It is a polly want a cracker answer that we have come to expect from certain factions of our country. Just say, yeah, yeah, and close the door to the padded cell!

If you never click on a link without any info, as you term it, how do ever navigate the internet at all?

Look, we all hear the horror stories of their health care, we put up a video of someone from there not long ago talking about it....so I don't know why you all are denying it..
we don't want our health care run by the Federal Government, how hard is that for you to understand..

It looks as though this is what some of our "leaders" have been doing, eugenics in America, don't believe it, I didn't either, but it is true!

Because it is totally illogical, you would never surf anywhere if you needed to know what a link contained before you clicked on it. If you are that worried about risky websites then you should use Firefox and the WOT addon which lets you know in advance about websites that are malicious.

I don't need to go through the web that much as I mainly use it for news sites and a few boards I belong on...

I will look into your suggestion though, thanks..
I have been thinking of going with Firefox..I just haven't been able to make the change just yet.
and just how much fun is for you all to call people stupid just for the kind of computer they use...such snobs and mockers

It really is a great engine, Tom has helped me with a lot of wonderful programs!

Thanks again, mate!

OK fair enough, I will withdraw the stupid comment, Firefox is the best there is and it has so many add-ons it is just amazing.

Tom recommended Firefox to me and then, when I went to another university, the IT people recommended it also. There is something about Microsoft products that malicious people like to attack.

I stay away from Microsoft as much as I can (which, frankly, isn't much. Such a monopoly!)

Internet Explorer 8 is an improvement but it's still not a patch on Firefox, Opera or Google Chrome.

If you really want to get away from Microshaft then I recommend Kubuntu Linux (http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu), if you can't wean yourself off Windows then there is ReactOS (http://www.reactos.org/en/index.html) which is still alpha but will be going to beta very soon.
