True, true.

Try telling that to UNNE.

I try and import stuff from IE, and it CRASHES

I search for more extensions and themes, and it says it can't find the server

Plus it's a tabbed browser, and I don't know about you, but I find something comforting in having lots of windows open

Each one being a different site
Rainecloud says:
Me too.
Rainecloud says:
That's why I'm still using IE.

I rest my weary case. Screw the chance of getting a virus, I'll take my chances with SOMETHING THAT ACTUALLY WORKS, kthnx. Never got an error in mscvrt.dll, or whatever it is, in IE.

[Jebus]

Maybe it just doesn't like you. I use it and everything works fine.

Firefox has been good to me as that each time I open IE. I get this spyware that always leads to this site "Casino Palazzo" and I can't stop it, so I stopped using IE. As for Firefox. I agree with tabs. I don't particularly like them, but there's an option to make Firefox to open windows instead of getting a new tab.

[Female Ryuichi]

I like tabs. Leave me alone

[Leeza]

Firefox is not ugly.

[Psychotic]

I agree with Lindz. I tried Firefox, it sucked. Anyway, didn't Rainecloud say he loved Firefox in that Unne thread?

[Nait]

That's it, you convinced me! I will change back to IE this instance.

[Trumpet Thief]

I agree with Lindz. I tried Firefox, it sucked. Anyway, didn't Rainecloud say he loved Firefox in that Unne thread?

I agree...

[Agent Proto]

I'm happily using Mozilla. It's great.

You should all download it now. No excuses.

[Nait]

Ok, here I am using IE... Everything seems fine, a bit of a tight feeling, though... Yup, this isn't so b

[Dr Unne]

This post is a semi-troll, but I'll go ahead and tell you how you're wrong anyways.

[qq]It's so ugly and slow, and doesn't work[/qq]

Theme it; it's not slow; it does work.

[qq]I try and import stuff from IE, and it CRASHES[/qq]

You should start from scratch with Firefox, rather than infest Firefox with the trash IE has accumulated.

[qq]I search for more extensions and themes, and it says it can't find the server[/qq]

http://update.mozilla.org , http://texturizer.net/firefox/ , need any others? Because I know of plenty of places to get Firefox themes. Note: extensions and themes for IE don't even exist.

[qq]I went to EoFF using it, and I had to re-enter my username and password[/qq]

Those 5 seconds worth of typing were certainly traumatic, right? I mean, compared to having personal information stolen or your hard drive formatted by a virus, I can see why having to type your password into EoFF again is far worse than that.

[qq]Plus it's a tabbed browser, and I don't know about you, but I find something comforting in having lots of windows open[/qq]

One window per popup ad, you mean?

[War Angel]

Internet Explorer is by far the superior browser... HOWEVER, in accordance with the EVIL that is Microsoft, all kinds of spywares, pop-ups and various trout cling to it, making it impossible to use as time goes by. So, you have to use other, simpler browsers, like Firefox.

[Nait]

I SOLEMNLY SWEAR BY MY HEART AND MY MIND, I SHALL NEVER STRAY OFF THE PATH AGAIN. IF I SO DO, SO HELP ME HEAVENS, FOR I AM IN THE DARKEST VALLEYS WITHOUT MERCY BY MY SIDE. Amen.

[Female Ryuichi]

IE always crashing on me every day.

I have now had firefox for a week, and no crashes.

Therefore Firefox>IE

[Lindy]

[qq]Theme it; it's not slow; it does work.[/qq]

Why bother since I'm not going to use? ; Yes, it is, it runs far slower than IE, loads far slower too ; No, it doesn't work, since I've tried to customise just a few things and it crashes

[qq]You should start from scratch with Firefox, rather than infest Firefox with the trash IE has accumulated.[/qq]

What? Trash like the USEFUL favourites I have, or the saved passwords maybe?

[qq]http://update.mozilla.org , http://texturizer.net/firefox/ , need any others? Because I know of plenty of places to get Firefox themes. Note: extensions and themes for IE don't even exist.[/qq]

So? IE has all it needs in it anyway.

[qq]Those 5 seconds worth of typing were certainly traumatic, right? I mean, compared to having personal information stolen or your hard drive formatted by a virus, I can see why having to type your password into EoFF again is far worse than that.[/qq]

I don't get viruses because I don't open emails from people I don't know, or go to dodgy sites, but then maybe people who use firefox do that very often and so need some kind of extra protection =)

[qq]One window per popup ad, you mean?[/qq]

Pop-ups being something I never get thanks to Spybot Tea-Timer and a nice pop-up stopper.

Nice to see enough people agreeing with me anyway.

I don't see how this is a semi-troll thread anyway, unless Firefox happens to be a member at this forum?

P.S. I HAVE tried using it, I tried for about an hour, testing it out and such, but it just felt clunky and horrible, maybe I'll give it a go later on, but I doubt it.

I've tried using things other than I.E. I tried using Firebird when suggested, but that felt equally horrible, tried Mozilla, hated that too. Netscape is just unmentionable, Avant browser is pretty terrible, and the best of a bad bunch I'd have to say is Opera, but even that is pretty dire.

I think, for once, I'll quite happily conform <b>to windows standards</b> (Hi Nait!), because no matter what can happen to my computer, it can't get worse than it already is. I have enough protection from everything, spyware, viruses and everything, and I don't look at anything dodgy so I don't really need to worry.
