meh boy i was only kidding in that post, lol. man gone an dig up info an
thing oui. sorry to have waste your time
. but in terms of bundled stuff
myie2 still owns
and i do know about those firefox shortcuts just i was
saying that myie2 also has shortcuts as well as plugins. that was meh point
behind all of this, that even the advance user could like it. i done giveup
long time on the firefox vs myie2 scene thats why i made a message saying
enough of the battle, was only showing that myie2 does have some of
firefox's advanced features.
