And those sites I only hit once.  Fortunately, the activeX crap is rapidly 
becoming a minority as web composers have come to realize that despite the M$ 
claims to the contrary, there are other browsers that _do_ conform to the 
standards out there, and are just as rapidly gaining square footage of dirt 
that IE used to think was all its own by eminent domain or similar nefarious 
schemes, like paying off the Gardener Group to write glowing reviews and miss-
quote the stats if they can.  They do after all, want folks to be able to use 
the site, and the shopping cart MUST work if they intend to make a living from 
it.

Std crowd control practices apply here too. :)
