By working "differently" I'm just talking about tabbed vs new windows, or the loading and displaying of pages, it doesn't phase me.

And your reasons, which by the way you've posted only a few, have just been as a whiny developer, "Oh noes, I haf 2do moer work 4 teh paegs ;("

Here's an idea, if you're that intent in making them work in Firefox and that sick of having to do it for IE, stop making them work in IE. I'm sure the world will be CRUSHED at not being able to view your webpages, and then move on happily with more important things.

You've done nothing to try and convince me besides calling me ignorant, when I've clearly stated that I've weighed up things MYSELF and decided. I neither need nor want other people to "convince" me, I have no reason to change, me, personally, not why YOU think I should change. I think the entire world should eat only cheese because cheese is good for you, there's a reason, but you ignored it! Oh no!

I don't care about web advancement, shinier webpages do nothing for me.
I've never wasted my time because of IE, like I said I compared Firefox and IE and found no change in speed.
I've never seen a lack of compatibility with IE and webpages, except for a couple of people's livejournals that I'd never read anyway, oh noes!
I've compared IE and Firefox's spyware protection, I see no difference, and when I have external anti-spy/malware running, why do I need even more anyway?

I'm not using Firefox not to be "awkward" as you seem to assume, it's not "sacrilegious" to use Firefox, but it's what's called a PERSONAL PREFERENCE, you know, when you like something more you use it more.

I like Internet Explorer, I see no difference between it and Firefox, and I prefer IE more.

Now will you stop acting like you're the messiah of the internet and have to "convert the sinners!!!111", I like what I like, you like what you like. You're not "superior" for using Firefox, so stop thinking you are.
