Well, so far, anticorruption.ca's claim to fame is their very well-done Flash intro. So, requiring the Flash plugin seems to be reasonable.

You should get a new browser though. Firefox is great and once you've seen tabbed browsing you're not going back.

And while we're on the subject of poor web design, please have mercy on the dialup crowd.

Down with graphics that can't be bypassed.

Fred has it right. The dialup crowd needs some compassion.

Remember, the Lieberals promised (the word promise should be deleted, wiped & materiallly destructed) high-speed to all Canadians.

Kate, you're not using Firefox yet? It's a beautiful, and very streamlined program. Someone who does such a great job producing a website/blog deserves to enjoy surfing the Web too. Download Firefox and try the tabbed browsing feature. You'll never open IE again.

Kate,

This link might work.

It is the main page after the flash into, but may still have some flash on it.

While we are on the topic of web browsers....

MS IE is widely known to be notoriously lax with regard to security. It is vulnerable to all sorts of nasty hacks, spoofing, cross-site scripting, etc etc, etc. Under pressure from a lot of fronts, Bill G backed off the past MS mantra that IE was secure and announced earlier this year that MS would release a new browser this summer. (IE is also a pain to develop web apps for BTW).

US Homeland Security Bulletin about IE

If one is going to stick with IE, suggest adding the Netcraft Toolbar as it validates the source of the page and other stuff.

Just some suggestions...

After all, maybe in their hunkered down desperation the Libranos will try to pull some keystroke logging attacks and other hacks on the blogosphere...

I use Opera and Lynx, and when I have to Mozilla.

Opera I especially like for the reason explained above - I can turn off graphics with a keystroke. On a 56K dialup (that generally runs much slower), I don't download new browsers just to open a webpage.

(Go ahead. Scratch your head about "Lynx".)

"You'll never open IE again."

As a Firefox user, I wish that were true; now and then I run into sites that only render correctly if viewed with IE.

Might I also sing the praises of the Find feature in Firefox: the authors wisely positioned it at the bottom, out of the way of the window content - unlike its cousin in I.E. that sits smack dab over the thing you're trying to find.

To give you regulars an idea of how much different my desktop view is from (the majority) of yours...

I'm an Opera fan.

For anyone that has used both Opera and Firefox, how do they compare?

LOL... Kate, ya got most of em scratching there head on your desktop....

Hint: Here... Suse ..Suse ..Suse

Yeah, I figured you'd recognize it. With Windowmaker.

What is a 'browser'? Is it true- that they have now developed a mechanical computer that you turn with a crank?
