I don't think it matters that much, since so many people use ie - if it's not there with windows, they'll just get it with windows update  :bdg

If I was microsoft I reckon I'd agree with the EU and get rid of it.

How are you supposed to get an alternative if Windows doesn't ship with a browser? (The largest irony is that the alternative browsers can't make a statement by making their websites incompatible with IE  :bdg )

Just bung it on a motherboard disc with all the other crap  :bg

Balance, doc...balance

Yeah!

invoke lstrcpy, addr MyBufferOnPC, addr MyPictureOnMobile


For the balance, and because Microsoft has been bashed so often (and rightly so!!!  :cheekygreen:):
Yesterday I installed Nokia PC Suite, a program aimed at transferring bigtures from a mobile phone to my harddisk - see above for how to code that in Assembler.
Well,
1. Nokia needs over 30,000,000 bytes to perform this operation
2. It doesn't work (you have to buy a cable, not included)
3. It stays in memory as a hidden process consuming more resources than FireFox and Explorer together.

There's your problem. IIRC, when we hooked up the old man's nokia via usb, it wouldn't work, so we went to G: and there it was - it showed up as a removable drive in explorer (xp).
