    When you are highlighting text, it automatically higlights the whole word for you and that is a pain to deal with when you want to highlight specific parts to copy and stuff. Please consider removing this auto highlighting feature if possible.

    Hello, Foru2ctoo.

    Thanks for writing us. I see what you are speaking of (I am witnessing this in IE5 currently), and I'm not aware of this being a 'feature' or a 'bug' in this particular software. You're right in that it's annoying, I'd like to go letter by letter as well. I'll have to look at this in Netscape too, and see if it's IE doing something.

    Peace and Soup,

    You're right about it being Microsoft related. I later realized that in the programs I opened this happened every time. The blame falls on Microsoft and their , in my opinion, idiotic attempt to make Windows more user friendly.

    Now there's another reason why we should all thank Microsoft for their high quality products.
