This is _not_ your customer support forum, nor is it the dorayme (or whoever) contact forum. If you want to contact dorayme (or whoever) and her/him alone, send her/him an e-mail. -- PointedEars

But thank you for using a "d", maybe you are not all bad. Berkeley said that esse est percipi, and, for similar reasons, dorayme's esse is its being perkippered on usenet. -- dorayme

I find it best to tick *none* first and then to just tick the particular browsers I want, just two or three. They are busy and you can wait up to 30 min and more sometimes. > for a > > quick and superficial static check, at least it is a clue.
