Dear Internet Users,

There has been a lot of fancy talk about killing me lately and quite frankly it hurts my proprietary ones and zeros. Since 2001 I have been there for you day in and day out with my numerous updates and patches for my simple tab-less interface, tight integration with an amazingly stable operating system, wonderful PNG light blue rendering, super advanced popup/spyware enabling, flawless rendering of cutting edge technology such as tables, frames and midi files as well as a big F you to those wacky web standards, those are totally over rated.

We’ve been together through good times and bad times, mostly bad… but don’t leave me now. If 14.4% of you are wrong, I don’t want to be right! Vote UP to keep me around another 8 years.

Signed.
