What does adblock have to do with viruses though? There's no adblock in Opera nor IE (they use their own pop up blockers and Opera has its own, very crappy and limited content blocker)
There is an adblock addon for both opera and IE, and adblock helps get rid of advertisements that non-tech-savvy people are wont to click on...which may get them a virus, spyware, scam, spam, etc.

I wonder if writing games for it would be worth it?
Depends on the userbase, i would guess. But if the programmer has fun making the game, it's worth it, isn't it? *all of omnimaga goes and buys themselves an Earthlink Mailstation 150

Yeah that too. I remember one of the Omnimaga staff was stuck using IE because his dad thought Firefox was a virus. In my bro's case, he got a virus from Opera once and Firefox kept crashing so he switched back to IE. I myself got far more viruses in IE, though.
adblock does wonders....

Wow, you can almost use that workspace switcher as a sort of sprite editor 0.o
Wonder if I should give kde a real try at some point..live-tested it once and it just seemed really cluttered and weird to use 
Yeah, that's the same thing I thought about it. I don't really understand the plasma desktop and I can't find any transition tutorial on it. KDE should have a first-use guide to help you learn the ropes.

Also some less tech-savy people will never want to switch from IE6-8 just because they prefer their interface and don't care about the risks. I've found that sometimes they think switching to a better browser carries risks (since it's software they're installing from the web), and they don't want to do it for fear of trashing their computer somehow.
Yeah, my uncle is still using an ancient version of flash because he thinks he is taking a risk by installing the new version...

People who care at all about a misinformed segment of their audience.
And those who have not given their clients IE never, (ever, ever) yet.

It is now fixed. I think I messed it up when I tried setting up email accounts... Yay!
I noticed mail() doesn't work on your server months ago but I guess I never reported the bug.
I ended up implementing SMTP to send emails through my Gmail address, which made it less spam-block-prone anyway.
Well, I am only sending emails to myself with the script, and none of the stuff gets in my spam box, so i'm happy.

If Firefox wanted to follow the first letter of each word rule the abbreviation would be F. Firefox is one word 
Yeah, except F16 is fedora. Have I been cleared so I won't get these messages yet?
