And why should your bloody website presume to know better then brucie or I
what we prefer on our computers. This is the HEIGHT or arrogance, for you to
presume that our settings are not good enough for *you*.
Thankfully I do not allow activeX controls to run so I didn't get infected
by *your* ideas on cleartype. If I had I would have use words very much like
brucie did, except more of them.
What are you going to do next? Install damn frontpage on "everyones" system
because you like it?
Now, fuck off with your cleartype invasion and your high horse attitude and
leave my settings alone.
Is that, clear?
