Hi all,

While helping out someone whose browser was "captured" by a site, I
suggested turning off JavaScript to prevent that happening in the future.
(This happened to be a great educational site that was hijacked by a
squatter/porn outfit. So now a bunch of kids will get sent there.)

It's easy to turn off JavaScript in Netscape and in MSIE for the
Macintosh but I can't find an option to do that in MSIE for Windows. Am I
just missing it, or is it not there? There's nothing "Script"- or
"Active"- like in the help index.

-- Bruce
