    Hello Raoul,

    Yeah, sure. But there are always other programs that use the Internet
    Explorer engine to display their HTML pages. See the website for the
    other reasons (http://www.cherryware.de/framefix/).

    Have you looked at the website (http://www.cherryware.de/framefix/)?
    This is not the case and I'm sure Microsoft wouldn't like that at all.
    Also, I'm sure there would be problems when trying that with 2000.

    FYI, the patch does just-in-time patching. It installs a system-wide
    callback which is called whenever a module is loaed. When the mshtml
    module loads, the patch is inserted into the correct place, by replacing
    5 bytes of code with a CALL to the patch code, which is inserted in a
    block created by VirtualAlloc with execute flags.

    BTW, to show that the program isn't scam, as some people seem to think,
    I have wrote down 25 one-time reference IDs on the website to allow 25
    people to download and try the patch.

    That's all.

    -- Thomas
