Macromedia has already applied the necessary changes to their site, but I notice neither Apple nor Real has made the change. Last time I checked, neither Microsoft property; microsoft.com or msn.com have made the change, either. A partial change-list document for the upcoming Service Pack 2 for WinXP doesn't offer anything on the subject, at least not after my cursory reading of it except perhaps noting that this is not a complete listing of expected changes: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/ prodtechnol/winxppro/maintain/winxpsp2.asp On Dec 8, 2003, at 7:07 AM, Chris Phillips wrote: > I notice that the Microsoft "Information for Developers about Changes > to > Internet Explorer" page is still saying this: > "Early next calendar year, Microsoft expects that new computers and > retail > purchases of Microsoft Windows XP will have this behavior.
