As I said before, M$ will block Google from doing it.

Nothing in the article said anything about blocking Google Chrome Frame. They just advise against it. Also, can we cut the M$ crap? It is childish.

I did not indicate in my comment that the article says so, I wrote that I SAID SO before. This is obviously the first step on the way to blocking it. Please try to read first and understand before complaining. Comments are not for repeating what the articles say but to add your own opinion. Also you're not my father to tell me how I should behave.

Here is the link where I said it in case you still don't get the context:

He may not be your father, but judging by your comment score, he's the voice of the community.

Just because many people agree with you doesn't mean you are right. It's often opportunism. M$ will surely try block it, either technically or by law. For the uninitiated M$ is the short version for Microsoft.

I may be childish, but it has been the unofficial acronym for at least a decade so obviously whole generations of children use it.

Last but not least: Voting everything down you don't agree with is childish. I argue with people and don't vote them down like some bury brigade just because I disagree.

Not to repeat what was said above, but many of us (I suspect) immediately think of THIS when they see someone write "M$" -- http://art.penny-arcade.com/photos/215178115_ExTPi-L-2.jpg

That term simply doesn't come across well in a discussion held - ostensibly - by adults. It has the same effect as someone writing 'MAD LULZ G00G PWNED MS' and ultimately conveys nothing aside from prejudice.

If you want to use an epithet for the leading operating systems vendor, use Micros~1

How will they block google? There's already two newer versions of IE and users haven't updated to them, what makes you think the users will install an IE6 update to block chrome if they won't install an update to IE7 or 8?
