Also, I forgot to mention that FrontPage (yes, that vile, disgusting piece of crap) isn't even their work. It's Vermeer's, IIRC, and it was popular on the Mac before Microsoft bought it.
You don't know the lineage of Apple II OSes, do you?
ProDOS is the Apple II port of SOS (essentially - a disk can actually have an SOS.SYSTEM and a PRODOS.SYSTEM, along with A2 AND A3 versions of programs). GS/OS is the 65816 port of ProDOS, with a GUI added.
Actually, I didn't know they bought Streets & Trips.
Actually, Chess (an old Win16 app from back when the only code they used that wasn't their own was either IBM's (OS/2), Seattle Computer Systems' (QDOS, AKA MS-DOS and PC-DOS), Elorg's (Tetris for Windows), or AT&T's (Xenix)) is "By David Norris" and (C) MS 1992 - typical Microsoft style in the 1990s for their own work when one person wrote it.
You have to run this validator to get it now, I see (I'm going to see what little hardware XP needs - XP Pro's been run on as little as a 20MHz Pentium (with 32MB RAM), and a 63MHz Pentium OD with 18MB RAM).
WHOA... We were fighting for OUR OWN VOTE way back then. In Iraq, we were forcing the vote on them. They didn't want it, but we shoved it down their throats.
Also, I don't think you want to change IE, because Windows Update doesn't work with Gecko.
However, I think I DID find a way to get Gecko working in IE. Make it a Gecko plugin that associates itself with everything that IE does itself, without handing off to a plugin. I don't know if that will actually WORK, but it's worth a shot.
Not without the source code to the IE shell. My guess is that IE 6 is written in Visual C++ 6.0, which will help if one wishes to decompile it. However, any vulnerability in the shell that is not connected to the rendering engine (*cough*most of the URL spoofing bugs*cough*) would also be in this mod (unless they were also fixed), and any IE patches will most likely damage your new executable beyond repair.
Now, if an IE-based shell (Avant, MyIE2 (I know that's not its name now, it's something else, I forget what)) is open source (*cough*FeedReader*cough*), it's trivial to make it Gecko-based.

Here's what it does (I had my fingers on the mute button in case it was a sound thing - it was):
It shows a title saying "Top Ten Cute Kittens". It then shows a cute kitten. Next, when you think it'll show another kitten, it shows a message: "THE BOSS IS A CUNT!" It also screams that text. I don't know if it repeats, or not, though.
Someone said you could get some patent pending thing that cost $75 and lasted one year, so you could find a company to go through, and get a full patent once you determined it is viable.
What language? I can get you a web browser using MSHTML.DLL or Gecko in five minutes in VB (implementation is the same, as someone made mods to Gecko so that it worked as an ActiveX control, and IDENTICALLY to MS's HTML control).
C'mon. You COULD have used this picture, or (by popular demand) this picture (somewhat NWS in today's "politically correct" world, but it doesn't actually show anything).
OK, if the P3 laptop didn't have much RAM or a tiny hard drive, I'd upgrade those, but a P3 is still DAMN powerful for most things - I had a friend that even gamed heavily on a Celeron 533 laptop (I THINK it was a Coppermine, but it might have been a Mendocino). Granted, it had a decent (for the time, and for a laptop - it was an ATI Rage Mobility) GPU, but still - he could play stuff like UT:GOTY (damn fun, just finished running up to people and blowing their heads off with a sniper rifle;-)).
I wish my desktop WERE a P3 - it's a Pentium MMX 233. I know, that's DAMN slow.
Actually, I'm going to argue that we're headed that way again. Not all the way, there weren't powerful searching tools that can find files across all servers *cough*Google filetype:torrent*cough*
However, the one my parents own is made by Krazy Kenny's Custom Computer Warehouse. They're known for being a little on the sleazy side. I didn't realize they were so sleazy as to use PC Chips shit.
Anyway, the software/manual package was a small bag with the following:
A shrinkwrapped WinXP Home OEM manual with CD on the back A PowerDVD XP CD A driver CD for the mobo A mobo manual that didn't REALLY match the mobo all that well A ThizLinux-rebranded OpenOffice CD (not installed) - from the copyrights, it seemed to me to be based on OO.o 1.0.2

Ah, I for some reason thought it did RC4...
Thanks...
If so, that's your best bet. It, VPCWin, VS.net, and an old Entertainment Pack Chess game are their best work.
I don't know if the GPS in the GPS edition of S&T 2K5 works on Linux, or if the software works on Crossover, but it's worth a shot.
If all a machine is doing is encrypting, A64s and Opterons are a bit overkill. The VIA C3 C5P has an encryption engine that makes top-of-the-line processors look sad. I couldn't find results for RC4, but is a page from a review of the EPIA MII-12000 which shows AES results. First graph is EPIAs in software, second is a few Intel and AMD CPUs (software), and the MII-12000 in software (which gets creamed by the AXP 2500+ and the P4@2.4) and hardware (which totally obliterates everything).
Well, that's not the only problem. You see, you have to get the DVD-ROM drive to move the laser the other direction, which isn't easy.
Wha??? Linux is a monolithic kernel. Try Mac OS X (hey, somebody completely computerized their car with a PMG4...)
Second person that's done that...
I mark all who have shock sites in their sig or as their site as foes. That's why most of my foes are even there.
I know yours isn't as blatant as, oh, Last Measure (which is becoming MORE, not less, commmon), but that DID count as a shock site.
Never mind - it only recommended it, and let you download without verifying (I would have passed, I installed from the CD that came with this laptop).

SP2 doesn't have an AV program, it just checks to see if yours is working right.
SP2 does have more sane wireless (I've seen the WiFi, and I've heard BT is a LOT better)
Also, if you have a Tablet PC, you'll be upgraded to Tablet PC 2004.
It seemed that the author had an extreme Mandrake bias.
I'll admit, I prefer Mandrake, but I did notice that this guy was attacking other distros more than Mandrake.
Well, the whiteboxers I've seen...
