The only thing I can't wrap my head around is, how to I prevent theft at the lan party? Do I hire security guards? Do I need security cameras? I don't know the people who will attend, I don't know if they're trustworthy enough to not steal other people's equipment. What do I do?"

Their site has a nice message saying, "Sorry, but in order to enjoy the Movielink service you must use Internet Explorer 5.0 (or higher) or Mozilla/Firefox with an IE Tab Extension (IE installation required)." While allowing the IETab firefox extension is somewhat progressive, why do companies still force people to use Internet Explorer? Surely the site should work just fine in Firefox? With steady gains in market share by firefox, you would think that webmasters would get the hint. How about any /. users who are webmasters, what are your reasons for forcing IE?"
