Given that it was the portal to the Ealing ADSL trial, part of the "vetting"

procedure for applicants was that they would use (cub's honor) IE4 - as a

lot of the "high-bandwidth" features were all IE4 DHTML based. This

assumption is of course super busted now that the site is effectively a

public domain. I bet everyone on the ADSL trial used the portal everyday and

didn't just network up their house via a proxy server. Oh no.
