WHAT Command line program? I use Internet Explorer, and sometimes 
Netscape. These things sometimes have invisible "plug-ins". But I don't 
even HAVE a command line unless I go down to DOS and then I can't access 
the Internet.

In other words, there is a major conceptual gap here, and I'm not the only 
one who suffers it.
