search and archive as my homepage so you can subscribe to a feed of Cadbury if you're so inclined and just skip all this other boring
stuff. My homepage and feed implement the OpenSearch response elements and I've got an OpenSearch
search provider (source) as well.

Most Desired Features for Next Version of Internet Explorer' and users of Unspun fill in and
rank the answers. There's a mix of serious answers that are excellent suggestions, fan-boy answers that are lame, uninformed answers that are already implemented, and hilarious answers that are
awesome. The following is the very short unsorted list of the awesome suggestions.

Given the work done in IE7 on anti-phishing, subsequent work on anti-phreaking just makes sense.
