Umm, I think the statement you missed was "The fix worked on my lap top but not on my desktop."

IE complies with a certain set of STANDARDS that Netscape, Opera, and others browsers do not comply with. The game was designed to work on a Properly Functioning System that complies with these standards.

Hee hee, obviously you are not in a computer field from this statement. IE flaunts standards and does not comply. That is why many sites restict usage to IE instead of "standard" cross platform acceptance. TT tuns on an activeX control I presume, so it is possible to run from elsewherebased on my understanding. The actual browser is not the issue. Products like Citrix manage this with no problem.
So without going into an anti-MS tirade, I will say that having the ability to run "stand-alone" would be nice. But as it stands, the game "requires" IE so we are working under that restriction.
