I understand Firefox has this little problem - to update it, you must completely uninstall and reinstall. I keep thinking about switching but honestly, with the way I have my computer locked down, the programs I run once a week to kill spyware, and my internet savvy, I haven't felt the need yet. And for certain sites, IE is just better.
Also Firefox still has bugs, and Opera has a higher footprint. And since one can't uninstall IE anyway...
I've been running Firefox for about a week. I love the fact that it stops the pop-ups, but it won't let java run.
If I could figure out a failsafe way to get rid of pop-ups with IE, or even with Comcast, I'd get rid of Firefox.
I've got the Windows pop-up blocker "on" but it doesn't seem to work. I'm thinking the problem is Comcast. I'm beginning to trust them about as much as I trust AOL.
Yeah, I know. I have tried to uninstall IE in the past and failed. 'Course I know why. I have been using Netscape exclusively for the past 2 years. Firefox has the IE look with the Netscape feel. I like that.
I like Opera too, but why pay for a browser when Firefox, IE and Netscape are free?
