Browser Not Supported

Unfortunately, Microsoft® .NET Passport does not support the Web browsing software you are using. Please use supported browsing software such as Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.0 or later, or Netscape Navigator versions 4.08-4.82.

If you use Netscape Navigator 6.1: due to possible data security issues, you cannot currently access .NET Passport using Netscape Navigator 6.1. We take security seriously and are working with Netscape to resolve these issues as soon as possible so that .NET Passport can support Netscape Navigator 6.1. Until that time, please use supported browsing software. We apologize for this inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

First of all, they don't let anyone who's not using IE to use MSN.COM and Passport as well. What is up with that?

Trademarks of a monopoly company that has lost all self-control. We the people, are the only ones who can stop Microsoft.

Remember their motto (Gates and Balmer) -- "it ain't done until Netscape won't run!"

That motto was put into evidence from numerous e-mails from Ballmer and Gates during the Microsoft trials. Anyone doubt it?

In the old days it was Word isn't done till Lotus won't run. Now they are blocking Opera and some Netscape
browsers from reaching MSN.com. I believe MSN.com is just the start, all microsoft controlled web sites will
be blocking others browsers. Who knows, maybe it ends with all web sites running Microsoft IIS refuse all
browsers but IE.

I could see them blocking all other browsers except IE, then when they have finished that they start charginh or leasing internet explorer cause its the only one around.:disgust:

I can use Konqueror just fine to access it.
