Not on the version I'm getting. I'm using IE6/Win2K Pro too.

Here's the code fragment for the search. As you can see, both the article 
search AND the user search have a TABINDEX of 10, while both the GO buttons 
have a TANBINDEX of 14. I'm logged in as cold_logic.

<strong>Search evolt.org</strong>
<form action="/search/index.html" method="get">
   <table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="0">
   <tr><td colspan="2" class="side"><strong><label 
for="article_search"><u>A</u>rticles</label></strong></td></tr>
   <tr>
         <td class="side"><input type="text" tabindex="10" accesskey="a" 
name="keywords" id="article_search" value="" size="10" maxlength="50"></td>
         <td class="side"><input type="submit" tabindex="14" value="Go"></td>
   </tr>
   <tr><td colspan="2" class="side"><a href="/search/index.html" 
title="Choose more search criteria and number of results" 
class="sidebar">[Advanced Search]</a></td></tr>
   </table>

</form>

<form action="/user/index.html" method="get">

         <td class="side"><input type="submit" tabindex="14" value="Go"></td>
   </tr>
   <tr><td colspan="2" class="side"><a href="/user/index.html" 
title="Choose more search criteria and number of results" 
class="sidebar">[Advanced Search]</a></td></tr>
   </table>

</form>

WTF? Of course, I tried refreshing the page, etc.
