Wow! I re-read that a couple of times and you're right!! On Linux, I tend to prefer Firefox. I'll use Konqueror as well when it suits what I need or feel like a change. Incidentally, none of the above sites worked very well for me using Konqueror either. I have the Greasemonkey extension for Firefox working with Fox News now. For some reason, Konqueror still isn't working with Fox. Cheers, Chris -- ================= Christopher A.
