It's not working on my IBM Selectric II. Am I doing something wrong?

(It seemed funny when I typed it.)

What's this "Internet Explorer", anyways?

Thanks to Mozilla, I no longer care about these kinds of stories.

From : Euro constitution signed, not sealed (666 one month trilogy; 2nd seal today)
Notice that the title underlines the opposite, which was also as they staged the cerimony.
But what else would you expect ?
That's part of the name of the beast, and it's part of the number of the beast and that's part of the mark of the beast.

Gee, my IE works fine. Sure, the text says the link goes somewhere else, but when I hover over it, the status bar shows the correct URL and after navigation the address bar also shows the correct URL.

Not seeing what the issue is here...

Netcraft has developed a service to help banks and other financial organizations identify sites which may be trying to construct frauds, identity theft and phishing attacks by pretending to be the bank, or are implying that the site has a relationship with the bank when in fact there is none.

One financial institution I deal with allows users of its web site to set a "security phrase" which the Credit Union will include in all legitimate emails. So if you set your Security phrase to "FREEPERS RULE!" then any email you get which is supposedly from that financial institution that lacks those words is a phony.

The use of security phrase would not prevent someone from intercepting a real email to you and using it go generate a fake one. It would, however, stop a more common form of phishing which is to simply send out millions of phony emails without any degree of per-recipient interaction.

Given that such an approach is so simple, why don'y any of the "big" firms do it?

Interesting. Here at work, if I point at the link, it still shows the correct link (Kerry's website) in the status bar, but this time it does redirect to Kerry's website (if the link its clicked on), unlike at home on the SP2, where it simply said "page cannot be displayed". Here I'm using a Mac with OS X version 10.1.5, with Internet Explorer for Mac version 5.2.3
