And the page you provide the link to claims my browser,
about a thousand times better than IE, OffByOne, is a
download manager. This is possibly because they know OB1
is immune to their evils. AT best, even if this is not the
case, it gives me an idea about the author. WHAT could I
possibly want to DL from his site? That kind of attitude
is acceptable on sites with 10,000+ files (OK, 500 files
and monthly traffic limits).


I downloaded the utility on my Linux machine and it
contains three vbs scripts

If you want to inspect them, they are in plain text and you
can just change the extensions to .txt and inspect


I really don't care, because I haven't used IE since 2001. And
WHAT exactly did you download? There is nothing called "Internet
Explorer Doctor" anywhere to be found on the net. Or I am
getting REALLY senile?
