Uh, WTF are you pointing users to a Czech (Hungarian?) language newsgroup?

If you have IE-specific questions/problems, post here:
http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/InternetExplorer/threads

If you're running Win7 and have a problem involving security, post here:
http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7security/threads

If you're running Vista and have a problem involving security, post here:
http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistasecurity/threads

If you're running WinXP and have a problem involving security, post here:
http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/xpsecurity/threads

If you're running any version of Windows Sever and have a problem involving
security, post here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/winserversecurity/threads

NB: No matter where you post, always state your full Windows version (e.g.,
WinXP SP3; WinXP 64-bit SP2; Vista SP1; Vista 64-bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64-bit;
WinServer 2008 R2) as well as your IE version in your first post.

PS: Bye-bye, see ya! Don't let the door hit you on the way out...
