Well indeed you can.

You can configure your TCP/IP settings with the DOS command "ipconfig". Then you can fire up DOS "ftp" and download Firefox from the Mozilla ftp server: Index of ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/ Once downloaded via DOS ftp, you install Firefox.


Oh, I know you can. :) But that's an awful lot of work for your average computer user. And let's face it, forcing someone to go back to MS-DOS is a bit antiquated in today's computer world.

I know we're on the same page. I just think it's absolute foolishness for the EU courts to even be talking in these terms. As so many others have stated, there's no shortage of free browsers out there.

OK, glad I could demonstrate some useless geekishness :)
