I didn't say that none of those things work. I was responding to the second quote above. I provided a a simple, easy to understand alternative to disabling browser viewing of PDFs for Acrobat.
I know what a BHO is, but most others don't, so instead of trying to sound like an expert, it helps to explain things to others.
FYI, you don't have win the internet. I didn't put my foot in my mouth, so I would appreciate that you quit the personal attacks. The extraordinarily aggressive style of some of your posts on this board are becoming trying.
You don't have to call someone out either. You could have cut to the post section like you did here to explain which part you were disagreeing with. Many people have problems with the download.asp part of the DDI where the Dragon and Dungeon are concerned, and the only way to get them to change or fit it, or even put it as higher priority is if more people actually tell them that it is a severe problem that causes people to be unable to access what they have paid for.
There system is flawed to where it corrupts normal browser operation, and they need to be informed about it.
Also when you work with them you don't have to "trying to sound like an expert", it just comes natural to speak in acronyms as they are. Properly searching would yield anyone the information they need. The first thing in Google is a wikipedia page on what a BHO is. From there people can find whichever product they wish to help them remove them.
I am not going to babysit people on the internet and get their computers working perfectly for free, they should be able to at least use Google and search for things.
So I stand by what I said, and not in some way to "win the internet". You claimed the things I mentioned to do was not true ways to resolve the problem. You were factually incorrect. So keep your personal attacks to yourself.
So when you don't try to start a fight, you might not find one later. So don't call someone out and then expect them to back into a corner like some internet bully picked on some kid in school.
Again, WotC needs to make it where people can save an article or compiled issue without having to jump through stupid hoops and allow natural and normal internet viewing to continue without what I would consider to be a virus since it alters the way your computer works for the personal gain of WotC, by trying to force a PDF to be viewed in a browser rather than letting you save it for viewing later.
