cisono Posted 21 October 2006 Posted 21 October 2006 I don't use IE unless I REALLY HAVE to. I use FlashPeak SlimBrowser (when I need an IE-like browser) or Firefox otherwise.

Bert Posted 21 October 2006 Posted 21 October 2006 It's better apparently. Gald its all woorking for you now pingpong.
lookwhaticando Posted 21 October 2006 Posted 21 October 2006 Just curious, what is the advantage of using Firefox? It's not crap like IE6. It's more secure, more user friendly. Or so they say. What got me interested in it was the fact it was from Netscape - a program I liked until it got too bloated and took an age to open without pre-loading it. I got it in it's development versions (0.8 being the first I used) and I quite liked it. I liked the tabbed browsing and stuff, and it loaded certain types of page a bit quicker. I've stuck with it ever since. I use IE6 when doing Microsoft related stuff (windows updates, etc) because Firefox just doesn't work with them (because Microsoft made the pages that way)
Ultra Posted 23 October 2006 Posted 23 October 2006 IE7's as good as Firefox. Sadly I can't download it onto my home PC because it doesn't work with Windows 98..
