What the old and new IE can and cannot do is the point here, not what silly amounts of plugins or other browsers can do to fix it.

People who illegally share music files online are also big spenders on legal music downloads, research suggests. Digital music research firm The Leading Question found that they spent four and a half times more on paid-for music downloads than average fans.

I don't agree with piracy, but I utterly dispise hardware activation. I don't mind much of anything else, but I think it sucks to have to call Microsoft and beg permission to reinstall my OS after changing my hardware. I basically agree with you, but isn't that a bit overly dramatic? I've had to call
