    Oh, IE isn't so bad...I think I like Firefox better, but it wouldn't be the end of the world if it were to vanish.

    I bet it wouldn't do that if you installed the chatzilla extension for firefox 8)
    I wish it worked with #eoff chat too.

    I generally prefer Firefox (that bastard Roto converted me), but there are a couple of pages which do not work under it properly. Most of them belong to Microsoft.

    Well, seeing as it's an IRC extension for Firefox, it does work with #eoff. I used it pretty frequently a couple years ago.

    What do you do to make it? I just keep getting error messages about the host not being found.

    They seem generally equal to me. I just like Firefox because it looks slightly better in my opinion. It's not like I absolutely detest using IE. And after all, there are times when you'll have to use one over the other (apparently some sites that would normally work with Firefox on Windows XP don't work with Windows Vista).

    I used to use IE6, then I brought my new laptop it came with IE7 now I was using that happy as larry for a while then I wanted to play a online browser based game (that I have now become an admin on and developer of) and IE7 just point blank refused to display the images I needed to have set for the game so I had to use FireFox, which being FF2 that too refused to show it but with a nice little addon called ChromEdit it worked fine so I use FF now the only sites I still use IE7 for are ones like Hotmail inbox and Facebook (everytime I do certain things with facebook such as try and create a gallery on ff2 it crashes the browser)

    I like Firefox. Tabs and Mint theme, ftw. Whoever made the mint theme knows my favorite color scheme, it would seem 83

    Now I am a Firefox user, because the 4 year gap in updates with IE6 was ridiculous.

    But, now that IE7 is out with, pesumably, frequent updates, tabs and an updated engine, is there really all that much behind things like

    Firefox ftw.
    or are you just jumping on the Microsoft hatetrain?

    The only real difference I see between the two browsers is user generated content, themes and extensions and the like, which apparantly don't work on the Mac port.

    Now I can see how that would be an advantage, but does it really warrent

    IE is teh crapz.
    Nice internet grammar by the way guys. You guys are so cool.

    I miss the clicky noise IE made whenever I clicked on a link...

    EDIT: I also noticed the preview is shorter when I hover over the link to a thread.
