It works.... You just have to be attentive to the background. Maybe having IE helps too. Resistance is futile.

It works in both IE5, IE5.5, and Netscape 6. The background is the only thing that changes right now...

To notice it you need to have a resolution larger than 800x600 running. I experience the same thing because VW main takes up all of my screen, and I really see no background. But larger resolutions, like Orange's, do see the color change.

I think everyone should be using Internet Explorer. After all, we do down here.

Damnit to hell! Wait.... No.... Probably bad terminology there.....

Anyway, it's the Microsoft BORG, not the Microminions of Satan. Get it straight. Netscape are the Satanic ones. Have you seen some of the bugs in their software? Someone used a CNET tool to find out the exact speed that their 56k modem was pushing, and Netscape caused the results to come back at speeds of faster than 738kbps! Oh, and just talk to Fantomeye to hear about how Netscape handles tables.... Internet Explorer is what? Slow? Oooo.... I spend two more seconds waiting for a page to load. Netscape is the bad apple. I don't think I want to get The Almostmighty off on some tangent about apples though....

Sheesh! You instantly assume we have all our workstations down here equipped with Internet Explorer for browsing because we think it's evil (Or because we think Netscape is good for that matter)? It's the superior product not only in my opinion, but in the opinions of most employees as determined by surveys we passed out last year. Besides, the boys down in IT appreciate it since they don't have to fuss so much to get browsers onto every workstation. Speaking of which, I need to talk to them about segmenting the networks in the Tech Hell Dept. so I can start making dead geeks browse the CounterStrike forums as eternal torture without chewing up some serious bandwidth with broadcast storms. (And we don't have to spend money on the content creation! Hah! I'm brilliant!)

Too bad ol' Heaven only has a singular T3 to work with. We have tweleve individual OC92 lines down here.

Up here we happen to believe in the time honored tradition of using paper. Besides, working with all that paper builds dexterity.

Let me guess: You took that deal from Apple last year and all the computers they gave you are so dismally slow that even ten thousand of them couldn't hope to stuff a single thicknet backbone to it's maximum capacity?

Too bad, I suppose. The CEO of Dell owes me a number of favors, so we got hooked up real nice down here.

It sucks!

They have a function at VW, but it doesn´t work!

It's a pity that all of the seriously evil programs and computers were developed here on Earth - for example, Macs, Netscape, iMac keyboards, the iPaq, Apple G4 Cube, WAP pr0n sites, Back Orifice.. you're supposed to be making all of the evil stuff, Satan, you know that. So why haven't you bought out Apple, Microsoft, and especially bought George Bush as your personal toy?

Just a suggestion.

You'd think the Almostmighty would be able to come up with a better response than that. For crying out loud. You've got 7k in fake posts, do you REALLY feel the need to pad your tally with spam? If so, talk to Slanker, for he is the Lord of the Spam. He'll show you more impressive, yet just as pointless responses to all kinds of posts.

I use IE when I'm at home, but it's GOOD! Hey Evil Incarnate, you'd better uninstall IE and get, as I like to call it, "Nutscrape". I absolutely despise it, but when I'm at school, there's not much choice.
