I've noticed that some people use IE and some people use Firefox. I just wanted to see which one comes out as the more triumphant browser.
And basically, I just wanted to start a thread cos I've not started one for ages.

Are you gonna do a poll as well Peej :w00t:

I blame the jet-lag... :blush:

But there you go - now vote away!

I'm a Firefox convert - I like being able to open up new windows with the little tab

:)

I think Firefox is a but faster - but it can be a pain because not every site works properly with it!

The problems here in the last couple of days were only experienced by those useing Firefox for example - although Haydon managed to fix that:thumbsup:

I have both but I don't really use Firefox at all.

I use internet explorer.
I've tried firefox, but there are just somethings about it I can't get on with.
I do like the tabs, and starting the new page in a new tab, but I can do that with IE, by just opening another page.
There were just some things when I came on here that didn't work how they used to, can't think exactly what it was at the moment, but in the end I switched back to IE.
I know there is supposed to be a big risk with IE, but touch wood, I've been ok up till now.

IE was giving me fearsome problems..............13 weeks & counting without resolution despite many & long phone calls to so called helplines..............so far, not a problem with firefox although it does take some getting used to..........Peej, will be asking questions...............!

Other: Firefox as my main browser, K-Meleon for ultra-quick, "no frills" browsing, Slimbrowser for the sites that don't display properly on Firefox/K-Meleon, and I.E. (yuck yuck yuck) for the sites that don't even display properly on Slimbrowser. (But for the record I fortunately very rarely have to touch I.E. these days.)

Well as I didn't get on with Firefox, at your recommendation Blink, I have just installed Slimbrowser and so far so good.

Internet Explorer here. I've only ever used it and I tend to stick with what I know. Can't be bothered to mess with it, in fact I only recently knew there was anything else :blush:

Blink, I don't use Firefox at home yet, but I did notice something very useful at work. I had a site loaded in IE with lots of info on it that I needed to transfer to Excel. However many times I highlighted the text in IE I couldn't copy and paste the bloomin thing. Opened the same site in firefox - problem solved. I assume there was something in the script that stopped me copying the data from IE and the authors of the site didn't cover the eventuality for Firefox users?

I noticed this too when I was trying to copy and paste lots of email addresses into other emails, when I was using computers abroad that only had IE. It was extremely annoying cos I had to sit there like a lemon and type out every individual email address again.

I'm proud to say I'm an Internet Explorer fan - never had a problem with it and to my mind, if 90% of the world speak english, why insist on speaking Twi? :bag:

Firefox enables you to circumvent the javascript that prevents cutting and pasting. I think "out of the box" that's how it is set up. Ssshhh. Don't tell everyone. :)
