Hellion Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 :devil Due to IE not having better fire walls,I think Firefox is much better,no more popup windows anymore.see ya. which one do you think is better?
Msterbeau Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Browsers don't have firewalls... Unless there's a Firefox extension that does that. But yeah... Firefox kicks ass. Tabs.. Extensions.. More secure... Pop-Ups are rare.. I left IE a long time ago.
Paper Hearts Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 FireFox!! My god, how is this even a question?!

pomba gira Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Firefox, no contest. There's the occasional game or survey that won't run on Firefox but that's a minor complaint indeed. I switched to FF after the 'puter dude at school put it on my classroom machines, & haven't looked back. Well, except when I have an overwhelming urge to play Bejeweled 2.
Scary Guy Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 The only thing good about IE is Windows/Microsoft Update. Now that Opera is free though I can't decide between Firefox and that.

I used it years ago & I'm sure I never paid anything for it since I was helly impoverished back then. Maybe that was a dfiferent one or something.
Rayne Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Firefox! For sure. Despite the evilness I can't figure out why I can't click on an uploaded image in Firefox and see anything but code ... I just open up IE and go through that way to view any.

I just open up IE and go through that way to view any. There's a Firefox extension called "IE Tab". It's like having IE in Firefox when you need it. It works great for the DGN picture problem...

Maybe that was a dfiferent one or something. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Technically it was but it was ad supported. You had to buy a licence to remove the ads. To be honest it's not what i use most, but I really like the Lynx/Linx browser.
DarkVampire Posted August 1, 2006 Posted August 1, 2006 IE is yesterdays news. MS needs to keep up with the comptition.
