[ale] OT:Is it me or

[Scott Castaline]

Is it me or does it seem that Micro$haft has quietly been again taking 
control of the web? I used to be able to view videos on the local 
channels and today I got must have Micro$haft Server blah blah. As soon 
as I saw Micro$haft I stopped reading the message. That was on 
11Alive.com. Got similar things on WSBTV.com and CBS46.com. I am unable 
to view Jay Leno now, that's when I first noticed a big change. I used 
to be able to watch NBC videos, but now all I see is an enlarged NBC 
peacock logo flashing. It doesn't seem to matter whether I have FF UA 
set to M$ iExploder on Blista or XP, or if I use iE 6.0 via CrossOver. 
Even Weatherchannel seems to be less responsive on FF on Linux. My son 
has FF on WinXP and it's more responsive and if he uses iE it more 
things seem to work that I don't even see. This has been within the last 
couple of weeks.
