AFAIR, one could fix the IE-by-default too, it just kept popping after
some updates.

Why not :-D
Having a proper website with tips and what not (and not the skewed
perception of a blog these days) have been on my ever growing ToDo
list...
I had several attempts starting circa 1998 (with flashing GIFs and
support for frames for Netscape 3.0 :-D), but they kept getting out of
date... and I haven't bothered with a website for the last few years.
I'll notch it a few hundred positions up in the ToDo.

Cheers,
Kalin.
