Alternative browsing and extremely bad business policy

Chris, from Memphis, emailed and wants to know about Deepnet Explorer. This is an alternative Web Browser that seems to be based on Windows Internet Explorer (does that mean security issues?). I've used it for several days and am worried about its traffic back and forth while online. Zone Alarm shows constant activity while it is open. This scares me. Also, there are some annoying built in HTML tools that are partially responsible, if not completely, for the loss of two Cybersouth posts developed inside Deepnet Explorer. Mozilla and Firefox seem the best alternative browsers at this time. They can be downloaded for free here.

The downward spiral of G4TechTV continues. Comcast has completeley trashed one of the best TV channels ever aired. I'd hate to know my business policy was to purchase my competition and bring them down instead of making my own business better in order to compete. Just doesn't make since. Hmmmm, Osama and Satan don't make sense. Comcast, are they on your Board of Directors? A very soon to be ex-stockholder wants to know!
