| 362374 | 2005-06-09 14:12:00 | MS Stumble once again Published: June 8, 2005, 11:00 PM PDT Cnet In what seems to be a never ending series of gaffs by Microsoft it appears that its new Tabbed Browsing feature tipped for the next roll out of Internet Explorer has numerous security flaws, or user enhancement features as Bill G likes to call them. A beta tester has at the risk of repercussions from Microsoft broken his silence due to what he terms gross arrogance on the part of MS. Smelly Goat Gruff as he likes to be called has demonstrated how a mere 3 lines of code hidden on a website were all that was required to rewrite the XP Kernel by exploiting some of the 48 million extra lines of code MS found necessary to write in order to include tabs. . He also claimed that a lot of the code shipping as Internet Explorer enhancements were in fact DRM related, he backs this up by stating that after installing the Beta software on his laptop all his nearby VHS tapes were wiped of data, Including the entire series of Gilligan's Island. At last report Smelly Goat Gruff was lurking below an inner city bridge wearing only a divers helmet and Boat Shoes, Our local man on the scene approached Microsoft for comment. The official reply was "Piss off", We have not yet ascertained if this came directly from Billy G. |

| 362375 | 2005-06-09 22:19:00 | Oh suddenly I see it - while you're reading something . OK I can cope with that . Like while your comp is otherwise inactive . Haven't got a middle click anyway . Yup, you can get on with reading the first page while the others are loading . As for not having a middle click, just hold down the Shift + Ctrl buttons when you left-click instead . I actually do that rather than middle click as it is easier for me but others like the middle click . And I got those numbers around the wrong way last night - should have been number 2 to go to the next page and number 1 to go to the previous page . Ooops! :blush: |

Or do you get a 'refreshed' page all the time, in which case it needs a new 'window" . yours etc . , Totaly confused person . when i load them they are fresh, and then it's just a matter of hitting refresh when i need too . |
