I will add my voice rather than being a silent watcher as I am for most of
the time.

Does this small sign really matters for IE.  I am not sure and not convinced
at all the M$ needs continuous hammering.  What matters for big companies is
when common users understands the problem of monopoly and switch to another
brand to raise their anger/frustration. This is the only way  to make it
work  be it  Apple  or M$ or IBM( to name only three.)

There are lots which can be added at the bottom from religion to sex so that
we can raise awareness of being "politically  correct" but not sure if any
Free Software is the place for the same.

-Cheers
