Yeah... who uses IE anymore...?
Old ladies who click the blue e and the internet magically appears. Firefox isn't a blue e so obviously the internet cannot magically appear from it's icon.

Yeah... who uses IE anymore...?My dad... I know, I know. I set their default browser to firefox, got my mom and sis to use it, but my dad's reluctant. He yelled at me when I removed the icon for IE from the desktop... ::)
Oh yes, Safari is actually quite nice.Yeah... who uses IE anymore...?I use Firefox normally, but in my current computer conditions, I use Safari (amazing how well it works on windows, for an apple program ;)). For some reason, FF is heavily affected by my blinking and flashing windows problem, like many programs, but Safari isn't affected at ALL. It has pretty good web design stuff too by default, though FF's web design extension owns it. ;D
My dad... I know, I know. I set their default browser to firefox, got my mom and sis to use it, but my dad's reluctant. He yelled at me when I removed the icon for IE from the desktop... ::)About your dad, eh, I think I know some people like that. :|
Yeah I like Firefox too it depends what computer I'm using like my main computer I use firefox but on my laptop I use IE haha im not an old lady and on school and public computers i use IE but i prefure FirefoxYeah, a lot of schools and at public places, such as the library, use IE... ::)
I was over at a friends house, and I was using IE, so I asked my friends Dad, and he said ok, so I installed Firefox on his computer, just like that.Yeah, well, some people are like that, while others are just... ::)
Didn't have to do any convincing.
Anyone tried Opera? What do you think of it...? :|
Yeah, I have heard a lot about Opera on phones... ::)Anyone tried Opera? What do you think of it...? :|
I haven't tried Opera on PC, but MAN, Opera Mobile for my Windows 6.1 touchscreen smartphone (Palm Treo Pro) is AWESOME. Before I was using the IE that came with it, and it was a painful experience. Slow loading, would always default to the "mobile" version of pages, even when putting the setting to "computer" instead of "mobile browser".
Opera restored my faith in the internet on a mobile device. It's fast, has multiple tabs, a beautiful start page with 9 shortcuts that you can set, loads everything like it was a computer, and has the smoothest most functional zoom ability I've ever used. If you need a browser for your mobile phone, check out Opera for sure. No doubt about that one. They even have a few different versions, for if you don't have a smartphone for instance (or no touch screen control).
Still...hahahaha ;)

:O
I hear that IE actually opens up each tab in a new process, so it hogs a ton of RAM!
This might be a dumb question, but whenever I run Firefox on Linux, its spell-checker tries to get me use British spellings of words, so how do I change it to American English?Make sure you do not have the British English version of the spell checker... ::)
But usually it should come with US english...unless you got firefox from the british english firefox site ::)No, it's what came with Ubuntu. In that case, I guess maybe it's South African English. :look:
SAFARI 5!!!Indeed it does, but Safari is the most compatible browser, using the newest version of XHTML and CSS.
Yea, I don't really care, firefox kicks safari's butt big time.
Я не могу изменить Firefox обратно в норвежÑком кто может мне помочьWhat do you mean you can't change back to firefox? :|
Firefox will always be the best for me. Safari and chrome are close contentors (chrome has extensions!). Opera is too much like IE in rendering, so that fails. IE... lets not even start.I agree, basically fully...I think.
Never really bothered with Safari it just seems to Appleish to me and I don't like Apple much though I do have an iPod I use Media Monkey to sync it not crappy iTunes!Yeah...iTunes is...crap, yeah.
MY browser did find it enjoyable to fuck up the language and make it russian, thankfully, i understand some russian, managed to get it back to norwgeian again..
To change the user agent in firefox:Flawless victory!
- Go to 'about:config' (type it in the address bar)
- Right click somewhere and choose new>string
- Enter 'general.useragent.override' as the name of the string and click OK
- Now we must type the value, which can be any user agent string.
For example, IE7's user string is 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0)'.
Most monitors these days are widescreen, so programs that use less vertical space are at an advantage, as opposed to, say, every Microsoft program from the past few years, which seem geared specifically toward making you buy a bigger monitor.
You are getting me confused john, what new notification system? :confused: Huh.The notification thing at about 4:40 on the video.
Horizontal bars: huh?Like when Firefox asks you if you want it to remember a password, or tells you it blocked a pop-up.
Oh yeah, that. I hope so too. They just really want to go with the flow sometimes...I guess. :|You are getting me confused john, what new notification system? :confused: Huh.The notification thing at about 4:40 on the video.
Really? Never happens for me...only the notification. :|QuoteHorizontal bars: huh?Like when Firefox asks you if you want it to remember a password, or tells you it blocked a pop-up.
Though, of course, it will take some getting used to... Can't wait for FF 4 anyway. That is sure to be blast! Wonder when to expect that?Hmm...who knows? shouldn't be too long, I can wait. After all, I wouldn't be really used to it anyways...
Firefox runs on Mac..... :look:
Eww, Opera and Safari...... :-X

i use the windows part to play glest, easy. I also have Firefox, i just don't use it very much. Both are like Firefox, no big difference. If something goes wrong with one, i use another :)Only cause of the support, the cost, and...some other little stuff. I wouldn't mind having one though. :|
I really wonder why most people hate macs...They are quite good, and can run both mac and windows systems, bug free...Long lasting...Worth the money i think.

Actually, IE is pretty popular with schools and old ladies, it's just that anyone who's ever heard the name Firefox throws up at the site of an IE icon. :P
Actually, some schools are beginning to switch. :O or so I hear. Awesome. They share the same opinion about IE. A lot of people love Firefox. :Oi use the windows part to play glest, easy.

Basically the same complaint as...as that great firefox Addon... ::)

Still IE itsn't that bad. but with all the computer junkies out there. All they want is faster the better. And firefox I don't use any funtions there just for web and really its just the same as IE I see no difference. BTW: on my laptop I always use IE (FF can't be use. The only opion there is, is safe mode and thats stupid) and on my regular I was FireFox. Theres no point in trying other ones out
Faster? Basically if you got the right settings or original "specs" Chrome and Firefox is the fastest. Stable versions at least... well safari and opera too, so it can not really be like that...Finally:My list:

Hmm...how is Firefox 4 Beta 2 now? :| Good?
beta 2? idk...whats the difference?Meh, was looking for someone to tell me... :| someone that actually tried it...
* Firefox 4 Beta 2 is available in 24 languages.
*
* Tabs are now on top by default on Windows and OSX - Linux will be changing when the theme has been modified to support the change.
* You can turn any tab into an "App Tab" by right-clicking on it and selecting "Make into App Tab" from the context menu.
* Web developers can animate content using CSS Transitions.
* Responsiveness and scrolling improvements from the new retained layers layout system.
* JavaScript speed improvements due to engine optimizations.
* Changes to how XPCOM components are registered in order to help startup time and process separation.
* See the complete changelist from the previous beta.
Ooh, some one else has discovered the Acid Test! I don't have time to go through it, how close is firefox now? Last I saw, it was high 90s, but that wasn't the default settings, and was a few versions ago. Safari I know aced it, and a few others.Well, it is always in the 90s. Never perfect for some reason. Oh well.
At first look to the untrained eye, it appears ok, but if you know it well enough, you will know not to use it. Your problem, Cat, is the same as grandmas. They simply don't know whats so bad about it because Microsoft hides it under the tables. Trust me when I say it is bad. Very bad.Yep.
[..] I think the majority of users would prefer an application that doesn’t bother them with what they view as little details (where a little detail is a minor update, major updates that include UI changes are different).
We get a lot of complaints that Firefox updates too often, people can’t see even see the difference with the new version (it was actually a security patch), that we change our mind too much and should just ship one version (it was actually a security patch), etc.
For Firefox 4 minor updates will occur automatically. Users can change the setting in Options > Advanced > Update. We’ll only be using the major update dialog box for changes like 4 to 4.5 or 5. Unfortunately users will still see the updating progress bar on load, but this is an implementation issue as opposed to a UI one (ideally the update could be applied in the background). We will also be able to prompt the user if they haven’t restarted in a very long time and there is a particularly bad security vulnerability that need to be patched.
Chrome/Chromium has a great interface, but Firefox 4 looks like it should give it a run for its money. :)Definately. Firefox also has the advantage of more add-ons. Sure, google chrome supports add-ons, but it doesn't have nearly the number or abilities of firefox. Still a worthwhile replacement of other browsers, namely IE and Opera, both which I've decided I loath.
I have a question, do you think Microsoft will ever replace IE as standard browser in windows? It would probably make a lot of websites more..open.. to other browsers. Right now i read 70-80% IE.. or 70-80% turds but whatever :PWhere do you get your percentages from? According to the W3C, IE only has 26% of the market these days [src] (http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp). There has been lawsuits against microsoft, I believe. I never really cared enough to look into them well, but I do believe that they were about the dependency on IE and forcing users to have IE, as well as preventing companies from shipping computers without IE.
Next Tuesday will be a great day! (http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.dev.planning/browse_thread/thread/18a347956e4693eb?pli=1)Your link is broken. Care to elaborate on what you're talking about?
Yeah... who uses IE anymore...? :| Only some schools, some people, and M$$ People (or not) ::)...Dude there are microsoft guys who develop windows phone 7 who own iphones I doubt they use IE
Speed, speed, Firefox is fast enough for me... ::)
But yeah, I think Firefox is first in my list, and then Google Chrome. :) :thumbup:
No problems with video on Firefox for me... :) Definitely not bloatware. :|
John, spell a word wrong, and the when it gets the squiggles right-click it, and try looking around on the languages submenu, I think you'll find what you want. ;)
Ok my laptop is junk, Arora doesn't work. My laptop is having a breakdown or something..... Does anybody want it? :PBuy...new...computer. Oh, and make it an HP. Uninstall that IE and put on Firefox ASAP. Have fun. ;)
