hm... its because our local chui sites are made and tested for IE, while almost all other sites on the internet and made and tested for firefox.

i cant say its absolutely underhanded since i remember seeing google claim that chrome was a better browser whenever u accessed it using IE. tit for tat?

time to do some popup with "you won 10,000"

[lwkoh]

can open ie8 as a FF tab what
pathetic crap from m$

[BaLtO]

It's Microsoft best ever browser (self pwned?)
Not world best ever browser lol.

They use words to hide words.
M$ might be one of the best marketing company but obviously it fall back as IT technology company.

One thing for sure, it's on losing ground, so it need to promote like this, and the whatever US charity meals per IE download. If a product is really good, people will promote it, and not itself.

And currently if I'm not wrong, Aussy has one of the highest firefox users per country as compared to other countries.

Can only be viewed in Internet Explorer 8? They still put proprietary lock-in on IE8?

Hey I found the treasure.



Hehe.
Lol, I guess this is not the real site.
So fast got alternative site. Cool.

should at the most be a client detection script then base on that display the stuff if it is IE8.

should be hackable unless the script is server side, but i think even then still can smoke one.

[lennardseah]

just fake the browser string to ie8 lol

[TheWicked]

looked at the code, seems like server site one. but browser string still can play cheat hehe
