Firefox

**Parihaka** · 11-17-2005, 17:43 PM

Oooh, I just installed Mozilla Firefox as my browser and I must say I'm very impressed.

It's clearly the way to go. I don't use IE at all.

I have been using Firefox for a long time.

It's good.

Better than IE.

I like the way that you can set up a theme that's almost the same as my Apple G4. Sooo much nicer.

That means that the explanation I gave you for substituting the web address for the words "from here" was wrong

I like that you can open tabs in the same window.

I hate opening tabs. It's just me.

But yeah, Firefox kicks IE's ass.

yes it saves computer memory.Instead if opening multiple instances of IEXPLORER.exe and thus grabbin more memory..when u open in tabs..it just uses one FIREFOX.exe thus saving memory..

have been using it for 2 + years now..and I am very very impressed..for all new users goto tools and options and then uncheck "allow websites to install software". that way ur comp remains safe even when u enter bad neighborhood sites on the www..

Oh I love opening tabs. The best way to go is to tie it to the middle mouse button, so as you are reading, you can middle click to open a tab, and then get to it when you are done with what you are doing.

I've been using F-fox for almost a year.

MUCH better than IE.

**Gio** · 11-18-2005, 18:45 PM

Without a doubt way better than IE. But I do perfer Safari for my Powerbook. FF for the PCs, though.

Opera is the way to go ;-)
