I was impressed when viewing the source over at the new Seti@Home Website. Impressed about the complete lack of HTML syntax and semantic conformance, that is. I certainly wouldn't want to take a HTML course at the University of California. :)
Oh well... I should probably focus on more important matters, such as updating my help sites for the new bugfix releases.
Posted by djst at June 29, 2004 6:42 PMOkay, I know this isn't the right place to ask this. But the help forums are down and I've spent two hours looking for the answer to a couple noob questions, and I'm finally picking your name at random and e-mailing you. Like it or not, the ball's in your court! :)
First, thank you for Firefox and Thunderbird. My computer was recently hijacked by a trojan virus that got in through a flaw in Internet Explorer. After I reformatted I swore to never use IE again. I would have switched to Netscape, but one of my computers is older, and Netscape just takes up too much #%$@! room on my tiny hard drive. I started looking around for a small but secure browser, and a friend steered me to Firefox. I downloaded it on my big computer.
It was love at first install! Finally, a browser that puts the power in the hands of the user, instead of the programmers! I love the tabs, the built in Google search, and pop-up ad killer. And Chatzilla is the bomb, and only 177k to download!
I put Thunderbird on my big computer next. Loved it too. Everything was rosy on the big computer, so I tried to put Firefox and Thunderbird on my small computer, the one I just reformatted after the virus.
T-bird works great, but every time I try to open Firefox I get the following error message -
"The FIREFOX.EXE file is linked to missing export OLEAUT32.DLL:77"
Being Layne the Noob, I don't know what to do. Any ideas? I'd appreciate any help anybunny has to offer. I'm at layne@xpressweb.com
Thanks,
Layne the Noob

Posted by: Layne the Noob at June 30, 2004 2:34 PMHey djst, update.mozilla.org should use your design for the theme pages, because right now they're falling into the same trap as Opera's offical theme pages. Kudos on having an intuitive design, man.
Also a q: how come there are (were? the page doesn't seem to be ther anymore) so many more extensions on texturizer than u.m.o?
Posted by: gman at July 3, 2004 2:18 AMDon't like the way you link to firefox and thunderbird, instead, why don't you write "... fo the new bugfix releases of Firefox and Thunderbird
I know, people can have a look at the statusbar, anyways, I'ld prefer my proposal. :)
