firefox,or Internet Explorer

[capriceman]

I was wondering.

But i want to shift to firefox since i heard alot about it. Is it easy to use is it cool.

or should i just stay with IE. can someone give me info on firefox?

I use IE and other than getting viruses because I'm a horny little bastard and I visit sites I shouldn't... I've had no problems with it. I'll continue to use until I get a new PC. Who knows when that will be, so I've learned which sites are bad and which are good. Haven't gotten any viruses or spyware for awhile now...

Anyways, one thing I don't get is how FF is easier to use? Maybe it's because I'm used to IE, but how in the hell is it easier to use? I mean... IE is child's play... I don't get it.

Firefox has a tendency to play animated GIFs at hyper-speed. Other than that, it's just like using IE.

How is Firefox faster? Two little words: Tabbed Browsing

Firefox is less prone to virii. Pages seem to render faster for me, but if you're on dial up, you'll never notice the difference.

Opera is ok too, but I like Firefox's interface and add ons better. There are thousands of useful add ons available and easy to install.

Tabbed browsing makes all the difference.

[Cory Wolfe]

...And what is tabbed browsing?

[zoomtm]

yup...IE 7 will have it though

[zoomtm]

[Cory Wolfe]

Um... sure. Whatever you say. (damn... another thread turned gay. We love to hijack, I guess)

Microsoft seems to get by on mediocrity, a lot like Ford. I don't spare much love for either company or their products.

Man, these discussions always go downhill.

I finally feel the need to say:

I once saw Liberace and Elton John 69 in the back of a limo, and this board is still the gayest thing I've ever seen in my life.

[Croc]

yup...IE 7 will have it though

...and IE 7 will also have Microsoft's terrible security and slow-to-load pages. Also, IE displays grahpics really poorly on my laptop, while firefox is fine!

Dude, this $h! is annoying. Cut it out.

Firefox: I like the tabbed browsing a LOT, but it crashes sometimes.

IE: I don't have the virus problems cuz I don't go to risky sites, and it seems more stable than firefox, but no tabbed browsing.

[Croc]

IE crashes far more often for me and is far less stable. The only time I have had issues was on myspace with a lot of imbedded media files...but now that I have 1.5 that problem has gone away.

[Skie]

Opera.

[AAS]

Safari

[TurboRush]

I have "AvantBrowser" it also has the multi window in one like Zoomtm showed. Except it is in the form of a taskbar at the bottom of the window...

[ToniCipriani]

Firefox, with IEView.

[Bimmer325]

Firefox.

I'll never use IE again.

[capriceman]

Well im using Firefox right now. Just downloaded it today. So far its ok. Not bad.
