Internet Explorer 9 sucks big time. If you see this message and you have a recent version of IE9 try F12 and change the Document mode to IE Standard. In case you using IE7-8 you can try the Chrome Frame plug (google it :-))

Of course, my first reflex was to google for code posted by some good soul out there so I wouldn't need to heat my own neurons with it. I did find one here, however, it seems to work only with LinkedList which is a class I actually never used (I'm usually with List or ObservableCollection). The solution was in fact an exerpt from a book (Accelerated C# or something). Anyways, I didn't like it very much and set out to implement my own. [More] Comments
