Re: Wow

Actually, I was working on a coworker's personal computer that was COMPLETELY hosed so far as IE went. Hacked and hijacked, this thing needed some serious cleaning. Of course, no Ad-Aware or any such was on this PC. Everything seemed to work (including Gator and Weatherbug) except IE. Ad-Aware fixed it, by the way, once I was able to download it.

But, what did I do? I downloaded Firefox via command-line FTP. After I installed it I was able to then download Ad-Aware and have it clean up IE's mess. But, I then switched the default browser to FF and put the Noia 2.0 Extreme theme on it. My coworker loves it.

Why didn't I just download Ad-Aware using command-line FTP? Because I'm not familiar with where Lavasoft would keep their files. But, I knew Mozilla.org would be arranged in a way that would make navigating via command-line a breeze.
