RE: Internet Explorer 6.05
This is not an official release from Microsoft. This is a clone that a user has created to look like the version in Microsoft Windows "Longhorn"

Lets take a look at some of the evidence:
- runtime looksl ike a RAR file or an executable rar file. Microsft would never use this as they stick to their CAB file format for compression.
- Graphics and sounds are never or rarely stored separatly. They are always included into the executable as resources.
- From the readme, "now you can delete bocked sites. for that the files delblock and blocked.txt are requiet so dont.... for PopupBlocker to work you need a special runtime installed on your system. I packed it up to.." For starters, i thought it was spelt required? Personal pronouns are never used in Microsoft products as the whole team develops the software. A text file for storing blocked sites? Hmm.. Microsoft made the registry to store application data.

I could post more if i wanted but my dinner is just about ready :p
