Title: What browser do you use?
Post by: Morthia on January 14, 2007, 08:57:00 PM: *See above*

I use FireFox 2. It's great. What else can I say? I hate the new IE7. It may look nice, but it takes up so much run-time. And it glitches.

Post by: Feniexia on January 14, 2007, 09:57:07 PM: Firefox.
No spyware, no n00bish and geek-hating microsoft, and it´s MUCH faster and safer.

Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Allama on April 04, 2007, 04:14:56 PM: I used Firefox until I moved out on my own and stopped getting the internet. Now I only get online at work and the network admin won't allow any browsers but IE. It sucks, but it's free. ;)
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Solnath on April 04, 2007, 05:10:22 PM: TelNET.

Post by: Algerianbania on April 05, 2007, 01:33:34 AM: Mozilla Firefox
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Gulliver on April 06, 2007, 02:26:06 PM: Firefox, which apparently can recover sessions after my computer crashes so I don't have to rewrite an entire post which I spent 15 minutes on. Was I ever glad for that!

Though right now, I'm using my cousins Safari...
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Khablan on April 06, 2007, 03:54:39 PM: Maxthon for me too.

Its interface is pretty much the same as IE's, so it's simple to use. It doesn't require a person to have any technical knowledge in order to set it up well, like some of the popular browsers.

It uses far less resources than IE, it's less buggy, and it's more secure. I've used IE, Firefox, and Opera, and Maxthon wins my vote hands down.

Here's a link for those who are curious about it - http://www.maxthon.com/ (http://www.maxthon.com/)

Never heard of it.
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Khablan on April 06, 2007, 11:54:17 PM: Seems like most people haven't. The only people who know about it seem to be the ones who use it. It's based in China, and is apparently the second most-used browser there. The developers haven't done much along the lines of getting the word out about it, so it's still mainly passed on by word of mouth, even though it's been around awhile.
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Musachanage on April 23, 2007, 05:06:28 PM: I use Firefox 80%, and Opera 20%. Opera is fun because you don't have to reopen the tabs, but Firefox is running more smoothly for me. Mostly because I have been used to it since 1.2 lol.
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: tak on April 23, 2007, 06:47:54 PM: Opera most of the time... When it doesn't work, Firefox...
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Solnath on April 23, 2007, 06:53:55 PM: What do you people have against using TelNET? Command console browsers have been the thing since the seventies.
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Loorachnid on May 02, 2007, 01:27:38 AM: Firefox v. 2, for the complete and utter win. I never have problems with it. EVER. The add-ons make it totally worth it. Adblocker = ♥!
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Pope Alexander VI on May 30, 2007, 02:37:57 AM: I avoid IE at all costs, it sucks balls.
If I'm using a PC, Firefox FTW!!
For macs, Safari owns face.

Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Eientei on July 09, 2007, 11:38:25 PM: Firefox, just upgraded to 2.0.0.4. Opera is also nice, but I don't use it often.
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Khem on July 10, 2007, 07:21:05 AM: just switched to Opera after Explorer decided to shit out on me.
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Khablan on July 10, 2007, 07:45:58 AM: I hear IE 7 is a HUGE pain in the tush.
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Khem on July 10, 2007, 07:52:50 AM: it was until it died on me now i am much happier with opera, plus now i have all the cool widgets!
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: PoD Gunner on July 10, 2007, 08:49:00 AM: heh. I used Opera a long time, it's a cool browser. *slaps a bug with the password wand*Firefox now. ;D
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Morthia on July 12, 2007, 01:13:39 AM: Yeah, I'd say that Firefox is indeed the best browser out there. I just got a free add-on called Hyperwords. It is incredible! It can do almost anything! Check out the site! http://www.hyperwords.net

Well, I would say you're on crack, but the evidence points squarely to weed. A foreign substance has to be in play for someone to "love" IE.
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Larry on August 10, 2007, 06:01:30 PM: I wouldn't say I love IE, but I tolerate it, due to my general laziness and resistance to change. I have no overwhelming need to switch browsers right now.

LAY...ZEE! Firefox is ridiculously easy to download (Opera isn't exactly user friendly, and Safari is new).
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Larry on August 10, 2007, 06:18:55 PM: Yes, LAY...ZEE! would be a pretty accurate way to describe me. I came close to downloading Firefox once, got onto the website and everything, but I just couldn't be bothered.

Oh that's sad. You've made over 3000 posts in this forum but you can't be bothered to download Firefox.

I can't live without tabbed browsing.

Post by: Salty on August 22, 2007, 07:55:13 PM: I can't wait for Song Bird to finally get it together! They're supposed to release their final product sometime in 2007 /me looks at calendar.

Songbird is Mozilla open source mixed with a media player. It looks for your iPod connected to your computer and plays the music you have on it. As of right now it doesn't have tabs and I can't use a browser, no matter how great, without tabs.
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Collatica on September 10, 2007, 05:39:55 PM: I use firefox cos it's pretty. :clap: Plus you can view pages with no style.

Doesn't Internet Explorer have tabbed browsing now anyway?
Title: Re: What browser do you use?
Post by: Khablan on September 10, 2007, 11:57:42 PM: Yes, if you use IE 7, which is another royal pain in the patoot.

Post by: kor on September 18, 2007, 07:05:25 AM: Since my Windows crashed(Damn Microsoft) last week I've been using a copy of Linux I had. So because I'm using Linux I decided to switch from FF2 to Swiftfox. Swiftfox is FF2 just an optimized version and is Linux only. So far I am really loving it. :wb: :tai:
