Internet Explorer/Opera et al.

I don't share Opera's view that Microsoft should not bundle IE and Outlook Express with their operating system although I have, in the past, suffered mounds of spam, phishing and trojan activity whilst using the browser and e-mailer. I have put this to rights by moving to Firefox and Thunderbird and have had practically zero problems - but, my point is that with my new PC I can at least get instantly online whilst choosing alternative browsers, and the choice is mine to change at any time. I fancy that if Opera had an OS like Windows it would bundle it's own browser etc.!?

Merry Christmas every body, and a good IT 2008.
