Hi Phil.

This I did yesterday. I got Opera, and its seemed fine. Amoung other things
I used it to download the Jeff Turner MP3s. Espesially I liked the Tabs for
the previous pages, but didnt like that the addressbar disappeared when no
pages was displayed. Also It crached when I try to install version 7.2 ?
over versjon 7 beta. I reverted to the beta and after that everything seemed
fine.

But in the evening when I wanted to view some TV programs at www.nrk.no I
was unable to. The player came up like it did the night before, with a HUGE
click button, filling the view area. It told me it needed an update fix,
from one of the microsoft sites. I was pissed at this since it worked in the
same player yesterday, only embedded in explorer. Also I couldnt find the
fix on the page that launched. (It was an MS page). I was pissed at MS,
since I suspect they do this shit intentionally, but in reality I am not
sure. I did work in the explorer any more either.......( ? )

Do you know of a good Mail reader? I tried Agent yesterday, but I dont know
if it supports Mail, and I really didnt like the interface, allthough after
some use I might like it better.
