There's an evil rumor afoot that the ability to use an automatic
configuration script has been removed in this version (which makes the
browser unusable for certain proxy server setups, e.g., Innovative's WAM
product).  (It already appears to be missing in recent Mac versions.)

Can anyone who's already installed IE5.5 on a WinPC confirm/deny?

Thanks,

P.S.  The IE5.5 download page won't display in my Netscape4.08 (not enough
closing table tags I think).  Tough to put the competition out of business
when the competition's users can't get to your product!
