I've never had a crashlock with IE in the 21st century. What are you doing to crashlock it?

Is there no third party Windows Java console? I thought IBM had one. (If you're patient, some judge just ordered MS to ship Sun's Java environment. That must have a console, no?)

JAVASCRIPT, not JAVA.

I crash it regularly. *I* am not doing anything to crash it (blame the user, eh?). "Normal" operation is all it takes. Even if it didn't crash, it would still be cack.

I regularly have dozens of Mozilla windows up for weeks at a time.

New I don't mean to nitpick here
but Microsoft calls it JScript and it emulates Javascript, it isn't even real Javascript, it just pretends to be.

I've had lockups and many bug reports back to Microsoft by just loading the darn browser or visiting the iwethey.org sites caused it to crash. So instead I use Mozilla, which doesn't lock up my system, and doesn't bug out on me with the iwethey.org websites, etc. Nothing in the iwethey.org websites that really knocks out IE, just bad luck on my part in having an unstable IE browser at times.

The only things that IE can do that Mozilla cannot:

#1 Log into an NT/W2K Server domain.

#2 Run VBScript

#3 Access ActiveX controls

#4 Active Desktop

But who really needs #4? Also usually unless you have a Corporate Intranet that needs them, who really needs #1, #2, and #3?

In normal operation over the last 3 years, I've had a vanishly small amount of trouble with Windows. Why? Developers can no longer replace system DLLs at will.

Does this mean Windows is suddenly the best OS ever? Of course not - it's still mostly a tangled spaghetti of impossibly complex dependencies, but at least it's now "as good as possible" given that it's Windows. I have essentially no problems with Windows of any kind, other than the occasional need to restart Explorer. I haven't had a blue screen in recent memory. I haven't lost any work. In fact the only really serious computer problem I've encountered in years happened when XFree destroyed my display.
