Fire Fox-/Dial-Up

[BooN-RelliK]

Ok I had Dial-Up, I got fire fox. Only one problem.. I thought this Fire Fox would take away dial-up. Im guessing I was wrong because I have to be connected to Dial-Up to use fire fox.. Lets say im not connected to dial-up and I click on fire fox. It will say "This page cannot be found". Now when I connect it has the page in. Can anyone help me get rid of this stupid dial-up stuff?

Firefox is a browser, it just loads and displays things it gets from your internet.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_browsers

"A web browser is a software application that enables a user to display and interact with HTML documents hosted by web servers or held in a file system." That is, it is a program that loads files from a server (the website) using the internet connection from your ISP. Changing your browser will have no effect on your ISP, you need to actually call them, cancel, and sign up with someone else to do that. The closest analogy I can think of it is like a flashlight: The flashlight shell is like the browser, it can look different but almost all of its brightness (or download speed) is controlled by the batteries, which would be your ISP.

As for changing your ISP, look at some of these links:

SBC
DSL Reports
Road Runner

In short, if you want to connect to your Browser without connecting to a phone device, get the following:

Sattelite Internet
DSL Internet
Cable Internet
T1 (From some TV Companies)

And, Dial up requires that you connect to it to use Internet Explorer and/or any other Web Browser.
