Default Why was this X-posted to win-98? (was: Tool to fix IE nags and restrictions)

| Why has it all of a sudden become a common practice of cross-posting

I actually borrowed the link from the earlier post about
Firefox, but....

| Will this tool run on windows 98?
|

...yes, it does run on Win98. It was originally written
for Win98. It runs on any Windows version that can run
an HTA, which is anything with IE5 or later. (It could
even run on Win95 with IE4 if the file extension is changed
to HTML, but IE4 on Win95 has very few problems, with
the notable exception of ISP advertising on the IE GUI.)

Some of the settings are not relevant to Win98/IE5, but
many of them are. Though I should note that there isn't
any Win9x-specific help included. I'm assuming that anyone
still using Win9x is quite handy and knows the issues. (For
instance, you'd need to install WMI for the IE MD code to
work as written, while WMI is pre-installed post-98.)

I didn't intend to clog the group or post spam. I'm just
trying to share a potentially handy tool, so that others
don't have to reinvent the wheel. But I will think twice next
time. I had no idea that so many people would get so
angry about being offered free code and utilities.
