Alright... Enough Is Enough...

I'm switching to Mozilla Firefox. IE is being a bitch lately, preventing me from checking my email or using myspace. I've had enough of the error reports. I'm downloading it as I type.

Firefox has its pluses but it's a resource hog and some sites function differently when viewed through Firefox.

*Using Firefox* Hmm.... this is different. :P

It's better. IE is $h!.

But, beware BV, People PC won't help you with $h! since the switch. Those high-class jerk-offs only help you when you stick with dreary old IE.

I stopped using IE years ago, it's $h!, always crashes and is suseptible to viruses and trojans. I only use IE for the few sites that require it.

Firefox is awesome, especially the window tabbing.

Well, I've never had a problem with IE until now... So... :P

As a Firefox user, I must ask: what's a pop-up? :P

Well duh, YOUR COLLAR!

Mouse gestures are the greatest invention since the Internet itself IMO.

I love the window tabbing in Firefox... Netscape had it 4-5 years ago also....

I haven't used IE at home in years, still occasionally use it at work as I need for certain work applications..

huh?

Mouse gestures: Moving the mouse/cursor in a certain manner/direction to execute different commands.

Wait, wtf was the mouse used for before "mouse gestures" then?

The difference with mouse gestures is you don't have to click anything. You just move the mouse.

Best setup & follow through EVER on C&G. Good teamwork. :)

I use Opera for 99 percent of my internet surfing. A lot fewer problems with that than IE.

Yeah... as I said, I never had a problem with IE until yesterday, so I dont see what's so great about Firefox so far... other than I can check my email and view myspace now, unlike yesterday.

I've noticed that everyone seems to be jumping onto the Firefox bandwagon. maybe its just because its the "new thing".

I go to alot of "hacking" sites and i dont get the virues and pop ups like i did when i used IE. I dont use tabbed browseing since i find it inconveint. there the same basicly except i do notice that FF brings up pages with a lot of picuters on them faster.

what is so great is that Firefox is substantially less vunerable to browser hijacking, viruses, etc.

You'll be ridin' on the back of the wagon with us soon enough. Yeah. Just as soon as IE starts acting slow. And virus infected. And...

:D
