You may not be able to answer this question, but know someone who can. BTW,
I do not use Internet Explorer, so I do not know if any of this is true.
The Wall St. Journal of Dec. 4, 1995 contains an article entitled "Microsoft
Probe Spurs Subpoenas Tied to Internet" alluding to several subpoenas issued
to various Internet software makers (Netscape was mentioned) and online providers
such as Netcom, Software Tool and Die, Compuserve... regarding information
on whether Internet Explorer "improperly disable rival progeams that let users
access the Internet." The article states that if I use Internet Explorer it
will wipe out my installed access software. Is this true? If I decide to
try Virtual Explorer and, by extension, Internet Explorer, will I have to
reinstall Netscape, Mosaic, whatever else I am using?
If this is true then:
INFLAMMATORY REMARKS ON:
The article also quotes Microsoft executives as stating that the problem
was caused by "weaknesses" in the other companies' software. I know of
no other Internet access software that modifies the configuration or
operation of any other rival Internet access software. Are your executives
as obnoxious and arrogant as they sound?
INFLAMMATORY REMARKS OFF.
Else
Can't wait till the Windows NT version is available.
