   It may be the most popular MS browser, but it is far from the most   
   popular browser on MS systems.  And, like all of MS' browsers, it is   
   generally avoided by people who know what they are doing.  (To be fair,   
   it is not nearly as bug-ridden and insecure as its predecessor, Internet   
   Explorer.)

   Look it up.  It is absurd that anyone could spend so much time on Usenet   
   and yet have so little idea about the basics.

   If that is true, you are doing a great impression of a bored teenager in   
   his parents' basement.  I would have guessed you to be a rather clever   
   but emotionally and socially stunted 14 year old.  (Yes, you appear   
   immature in comparison to a normal 14 year old.)  I'd have rated you as   
   smart on the basis of your high level English skills.

   I don't think you know how the world works.  No rational person posts   
   their phone number on public discussion forums, and no rational person   
   calls numbers forums.
