Panther vs. The World

Yes, that's right ladies and gentlemen, in this corner we have the Panther taking on his opponent The World, better known as Microsoft. It appears that while Panther has some great moves, The World is just too big to tame. Ouch! That left hook looked like it hurt. Panther tries to get a piece of the action, but it just seems that it's not his piece of pie. Everytime Panther tries something, MS just grabs him and sits on him pinning him to the mat and hurting him badly.

Yeah, it's not a Panther's world. It seems that everything out there is written for Microsoft Internet Explorer. Yeah, that includes WildCat Mail, unfortunately. I haven't found a browser that works properly with it except MSIE. However you could try a new browser out there called MyIE2. (three double-Us [dot] myie2 [dot] commandos.) This might work for you if you're using a Windows machine. It's just kind of a confusing browser to use. (lots of buttons) But it does look curiously similar to the Konqueror browser on the KDE desktop for Linux. ;) If you're using a Mac, well, good luck. You have, well, Internet Explorer and hmmmm, Safari. But then again, you might be running OS 10.2, whatever release Panther is. So that won't help. You could try running Linux, but then you might be accused of being a supervillain or trying to take over the world with your orbiting brain lasers. Hehehe. Linux runs on anything, man. But, if you really want to be able to use WildCat Mail, just bend and use Windows like the rest of us. Grrrr. But, if you really want to know, I'm not using MSIE to write this. :) I'm using Windows, but not Internet Exploder.
