Just curios, why doesn't Apple make their own Web Browser? I mean, IE et al is OK in classic, but all web browser stink big time in X. I bet Apple could make a killer browser...better to have their own than bundle with crap like IE...but maybe IE X will improve over time, it just stinks now.

Apple no longer persues such an idea so that MS keeps producing apps for the Mac OS.

IE in OS 9 stinks too...

I have very much problems with it, especially when typing urls, especially when they start with a W. IE then wants to list alllll URL's I visited before with a W and then the computer hangs.

Jerommeke, IE in OS 9 rocks ! You can disable the auto-complete feature via the preferences.

Has everyone seen the latest from M$? It involves OE and MSN: http://www.zdnet.com/zdnn/stories/ne...8787%2C00.html
The article is from ZDNet which I got off the MSN site. Hee, Hee. I haven't tried to get to MSN from OmniWeb yet, but that is next. And everyone thinks that I am paranoid about M$.
It IS as bad as you think, and they ARE out to get you!
