FireFox VS Internet Explorer

[Blue]

You can't blame the mac on the fact you don't know how to use a program

I think that has more to do with viruses...
I just wanted to say that just for an excuse... well it's more prone to get messed up by laugh:

and Dan, which key is it? with my pc and all pcs i've gotten, I never had to read a manual to use it.

pfft manual?
its called building one yourself, and then breaking it, and then rebuilding, and on and on

[bigdeath]

I use linux so I don't have to worry about viruses anyways. But Linux comes with firefox as its default browser and I love it. Although the new internet explorer has all the same features minus the multi-use search bar. I plan on trying swiftfox in the next few days.

Either the option key or the apple key, idk like I said i use a mighty mouse.

[bigdeath]

I've never used a mac but from what I hear its alot like linux. I think theyre both Unix based. What are you guys trying to do again. SOrry im to lazy to read all 3 pages.

[Blue]

has to be the option key, cause the apple key is used to copy words.

[Dan]

I checked, its the control key, ctrl + click will do right click.

Firefox is better. But you still probably want to leave IE installed. You can't download microsoft updates on firefox. And some websites (very few) don't display correctly in firefox and/or let you do downloads. But firefox is definitely better.

There is an add-on for Firefox that I use called IE tab. It allows you to open a tab within Firefox using the IE engine. Can find it on Mozilla's site in their Firefox add-on section.

Good Point.


LOL@right click

I prefer Links2...because CLI browsing is leet

About Firefox, it owns, especially with about:config, and that you can write your own css scripts for it and not have to waste memory using an addon for something a css script can do (like block flash unless you click the object)

and Internet Explorer didn't used to be terrible, until EI7 and they put the "file/Edit/View/" bar under the address bar...than and it wastes all your memory.

Firefox.
Although version 3.0.0 was giving me the shits! I actually resorted to I.E a couple of times. It seems they have fixed the constant crashes with v3.0.1 though

Using XP? As vista has an independent update tool that doesn't go via internet explorer?

FireFox is probably better but find it has freeze points when it loading the heavy java sites to be honest I use both for different things.. I find IE eaiser for proxy settings.

[Ixion]

Firefox for me, IE lags and then crashes every 10 mins

[Mathalamus]

firefox, no question about it

[BewarethePhoenix]

I am on Internet Explorer as we speak/read.............Firefox can kiss my lilly white ass.

Edited poll btw...

I second that! Not surprising to see that Pam has good taste

It sucks though cuz I just installed FireFux on one of my computers because my roomate is too much of a pussy to minimize and close a few windows...

[Mathalamus]

its firefox not firefux, use correct spelling

[jedimaster86]

its firefox not firefux, use correct spelling

I'm pretty sure the spelling was intentional, no problem there. As for me, IE all the way. I don't condone the use of forcing the melding of fire and a fox, and chain him into mascothood. Free the Fox, Explore it.

[Skye]

FF FTW.

Blame Spit. I was an IE hoe until he came along.


Although... I make layouts for a web-based sim and have found that IE is always kinder to my html.

wait, wat?

I know you don't joke but this sounds like one

and The Fox <i>is</i> free according to it's license O.o

[FrogMan]

Who Jedi? Joke? Never, thats why he can't stop editing my post as a little running joke has with all staff, and that's why we are in love with him.

Like now FF is "stuttering" as I type and only really use IE since it got tabs.
