This is another one of those instances where things are sent so fast in email and blown so quickly out of proportion that the hysteria travels faster than the sense. And yet another instance where you all should think before you forward angry and hysterical rumors as absolute truth. I'm on the original list where this was posted, and the author later claimed that this was a misunderstanding between him and his ex-boss. And it has also been posted that CIS does have its own WINSOCK which is installed when you install their software. But it merely moves your original aside so you can put it back if you want to. It hardly erases "all your other browsers." Laura
