So, which browser do you use to surf this wonderful website?

I've been using FireFox since 1.0.

The tabbed browsing hooked me. As far as Windows computers go though, IE rendering and speed is still superior.

And on the real downside, FireFox has proven to be a real disappointment in terms of 'safe computing'...far too many security holes already. And the promise of speedy patches has not materialized either. It took multiple weeks to patch a few security holes after being uncovered.

Mozilla really blew it, IMHO. FireFox was a third ground-up rewrite and they still haven't got security right...to the point where it's even worse then IE now.

But becuase it's more feature rich than IE (tabbed browsing, extensions, themes, searching, etc.), I will say with FireFox for now.

 

Moziila Firefox for me, unless its a website that won't work right in firefox.
probably my favorite feature is the popup blocker, it works so much better than any popup blocker I've used in the past.

 

there are other browsers besides I.E. :scratch: its IE for now... BTW what exactly is "tabbed browsing"

 

tabbed browsing allows opening multiple web pages in the *same* desktop window...each page being in it's own tab.

Doesn't sound like a big deal, but once you've tried it...you'll be hooked.

 

This is why I am using the new version of Netscape. This thing is awesome. I've got the news reports constantly updating at the top. It has tabbed browsing that actually works better than firefox. Also, you will never have a problem with a page not displaying correctly, it renders webpages in EITHER firefox and/or IE. It's the best of both worlds with a nifty looking interface.

 

I'm using Netscape 7.2. I have to download the new one.

 

I'm using Safari. It was recommended because I surf on a mac. Occasionally I'll switch to IE if I have trouble uploading an image.

 

Interesting. I've been reading a lot about the resurrected Netscape browser...generally positive. Thanks for the feedback, I'll have to have a look.
