One time only...] If you don't like it, I suggest that you take your complaints to: 1) Micro$oft - The refused to allow IBM to license/ship Windoze95 unless IBM stopped preloading OS/2 and the Lotus SmartSuite. [Ref from the U.S. District Court "Findings of Fact" available on request.] 2) The US DoJ for not fully prosecuting the case that they WON and not insisting on remedies that will inhibit future illegal activities by M$. 3) The states that, after the DoJ gave up/in, tucked their tails in and went home. [All except MA and WV.] [Rant off...] Sorry, but this is a real sore point for me too. I just feel that, if blame is placed, it should be placed on the guilty parties. If anyone wants the page reference in the court document, please send it OFF-LIST so we do not clutter the real purpose of the list. Or, you can go to the court's site and download the entire document.
