ChAiNz.2da Posted March 1, 2006 Posted March 1, 2006 Gotta give props to Firefox. Even though I'm mainly a MAC user, and Safari was a very close second.. Firefox with it's tabbed browsing, no-popups, themes, extensions and other goodies just outweigh any other browser's capabilities (IMO). I've even been able to find a Firefox theme to simulate Safari's look Firefox for me, I've got it installed on both my MAC & PC
Commander Obi-Wan Posted March 1, 2006 Posted March 1, 2006 Ooooo.....A new poll. I use Internet Explorer bacause that's what we had on the computer when we bought it.
Justus Posted March 1, 2006 Posted March 1, 2006 Firefox for me. Once I started using Firefox there was no going back for me. The tabbed browsing is awesome, a must have for people like me that like viewing multiple pages - have the presets the way I want them, so when I open the tabs they automatically goto my favorite site, absolutely wonderful. IE is so archaic and the code so shotty I'm suprised Microsoft even allows such a horrific product to be available to so many people.
IronTusk Posted March 1, 2006 Posted March 1, 2006 I cant believe people still using explorer Firefox rulezz
El Sitherino Posted March 1, 2006 Posted March 1, 2006 Firefox and Camino (basically the mac specific version of firefox).
Katarn07 Posted March 1, 2006 Posted March 1, 2006 IE = Adware, Spyware, and other unwanted crap even with Norton Firefox = Better security and no popups
ZemmurkTrooper Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Heh, IE is good enough, if you work with it right you can have no adware, spyware, and popups. I dont have nay
Samnmax221 Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Gotta love Firefox although I'v heard good things about Opera too
Darth Andrew Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 For all you Firefox users: Would I have to change my internet service if I want to switch to Firefox? I ask because I'm quite snug in my current provider, SBC Yahoo DSL. Or would I still have SBC, but just use it with a different browser? It's all quite confusing to me, so I'm not sure what to do.
matt-- Posted March 2, 2006 Author Posted March 2, 2006 You can use firefox with any internet service provider, just download it.
Kurgan Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Don't let all this firefox lovin' by the other mods fool ya, Opera's good too (and I use it).
Rexíos Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Fire Fox all the way, I find that its better constructed and so on. (First post btw )
tk102 Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I am the only Netscape voter. Firefox got nothing on me.
TheOssusKeeper Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 oh come on Mac and tk102... firefox is awesome, try it you'll like it, hehehe... actually I have IE, AOL, Firefox and Opera... but I use Firefox by far the most...
tk102 Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I don't think I've heard of another software application that gets "pushed" by its users harder than Firefox. (Think: drug dealer) oh come on Mac and tk102... firefox is awesome, try it you'll like it, hehehe... See?
90SK Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I prefer Firefox, but I also use IE. Both seem to run fine, though I like the tab system that Firefox employs. And the search toolbar is great.
TheOssusKeeper Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I don't think I've heard of another software application that gets "pushed" by its users harder than Firefox. (Think: drug dealer) See? I know... it's funny isn't it...
Jeff Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I use firefox the majority of the time, but on Windows I have messed it up somehow so I can't view flash animation or movies, so I use Opera for that kind of stuff since I'm too lazy to figure out the problem. And I use Firefox in Ubuntu as well.
Reclaimer Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Heh, IE is good enough, if you work with it right you can have no adware, spyware, and popups. I dont have nay Same here.
Samuel Dravis Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 I use Firefox, and if I need IE for whatever reason that's why I have the IE Tabs extension (sticks an IE instance inside of a FF tab), basically taking the best idea out of Netscape 8 and leapfrogging it. I used Netscape 7 before I switched to Firefox, and I liked that better than IE6 too... I really don't see why anyone sticks with IE.
