news://news.sf.sbcglobal.net/mozilla.support.firefox gives the following Outlook Express message ...

It's not really a question of removing the extensions. I use SeaMonkey browser, so where I go in the program to customize it and select preferences is sometimes different than in FF. But with either you can create a new profile. When you do that you will be presented with the default set-up and no user-added enhancements. If you still have your current problem with that set-up, then the corruption is in the install directory and will be hard (and probably inadvisable) to fix.

You mean I've been on good behavior all this time for nothing? GEEEEESH!! (I
figured if you can't post a screenshot, then somebody somewhere is running the show). But seriously, I just read that Microsoft is dipatching hundreds of "Windows Vista Gurus" to Best Buys all around the country to try to coax people back into the laptop aisle. Why can't they just do this for Windows 98 and bury this top post-bottom post debate once and for all? Gary S. Terhune wrote: There is no moderator, not here, anyway.
