... in current version of IE... 5.0, 5.5 and 6.0. Ergo the article is still relevent.

I'm not sure I'm following this suggestion. When IE's "view source" doesn't work, it doesn't work at all, from anywhere. "Edit with" is grayed out at least some of the time, but I personally haven't actually payed attention to whether both are always broken together or not. But we're talking primarily about the simple "view source" feature, I think.

You say NT4.0... I asume that extends to all recent NT based platforms, 2000, XP, etc?
