Every time I see a "look at these google ads!" topic I resist the urge to go in and say "What ads?"

Firefox.

Firefox.

I used IE one day just to see what in the heck people were talking about. I never saw an ad that read "Biff Naked".

Ok I use IE, but how do you use another one?

I'm sure i'll get a couple of these . . .

Firefox for me. I've been using it since it was Firebird 0.8 and never looked back.

Queen, go to getfirefox.com, download it, install it like any other program, and you're using it.

Thunderbird? That's the e-mail program. Was it once the browser?

Queenie, if you don't like Firefox then IE will always take you back.

I guess i'll have to try it at home. My employer has decided to ban all downloads at work. *sigh*

IE and proud of it. I've got no beef with Firefox, but I love to snub my nose at all the Firefox Elitests.

They're right to be that way, Firefox kicks the shit out of IE.

No, FIREbird was once the browser's name. Thunderbird was always the e-mail client. They changed the name to Firefox because Firebird was already taken by another open source project. In fact, Firefox is actually the project's third name. It was originally called Phoenix.

Yes I'm embarrassed that I know all this.

Did someone say Free Bird!

Greg "Free Bird" Daniels.

Safari, because I am an elitist Mac user. Tongue

my guy uses safari too, but I'm trying to get him to switch to firefox Big Grin

I use firefox.

Wow, even all the mac users i know hate Safari and use an alternative instead. It really is a fairly crap browser all things considered (granted if it was a choice between IE or Safari, id take safari but that's not saying much)


What browser do you use? - upperdeckercourt - 08-05-2008

What's wrong with Safari? I just started using a mac a few months ago and it seems fine to me.

It has a few little "quirks" that make people generally not fans. That and most mac users at least that i know tend to love themselves some firefox.

So to you firefox users, I ask, why ?

What makes firefox superior to IE?


What browser do you use? - hotzester - 08-11-2008

Used Firefox one day, haven't used IE on my own computers since.


What browser do you use? - Titan! - 08-11-2008

I've used IE mostly, I used firefox for a little while, and when I'm at school, I use safari, and I simply can't see where one is superior to any of the others, just different flavors of the same soup.


What browser do you use? - providencecrow - 08-11-2008

well from a security standpoint, firefox is miles beyond IE. Much malware is installed through IE exploits.

The cosmetic appeal though? add-ons. You can make firefox do ANYTHING you want.


What browser do you use? - hotzester - 08-12-2008

Agreed - FF is a thousand times more stable and secure than IE, and the ability to customize is awesome.


What browser do you use? - cashmoney - 08-12-2008

I downloaded Firefox but when I couldn't watch videos from it (it made me go to an external site everytime) I stopped using it.


What browser do you use? - hotzester - 08-13-2008

What kind of videos (and where from)? I watch stuff all the time in FF.


What browser do you use? - heywoodjablome - 08-13-2008

right now i'm using maxthon (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.maxthon.com/">http://www.maxthon.com/</a><!-- m -->), and the last one i used was opera. maxthon seems to have the functionality of IE, but also has the helpful capabilities of Firefox or Opera.

Opera is great, but doesn't have support for a lot of things yet.

IE is slower than piss, and one time Firefox pissed me off so i started searching around for other browsers...


What browser do you use? - lokizilla - 08-13-2008

I love Firefox....don't know how I surfed before it.
