Re: [MLUG] Web Site Help

[Michael <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I didn't have an old Mac. I downloaded it off the Internet within the 
past month or so I've had the Mac. Off hand I don't remember where but 
I'm sure I just Googled for 'internet explorer MacOS' or something 
similar. IE sucks but I still see a lot of visitors to my websites using 
it on both Mac and Windows.
