I prefer BSD systems, but Ubuntu easier to install and use than Windows (and much better, prettier and more feature-ful). ...does everything Windows does (even for office and play) but more and better.

Will the patch work on all those bootleg copies of Windows?

[Da Coyote]

Does anyone actually trust IE anymore?

[familyop]

...is easier to install, even.

[Blennos]

I’ve been with FireFox for years and have never looked back. It is a great browser.

[ConfidentConservative]

Firefox for me too!

My concern is banks and business.

[cookcounty]

OK, dumb question time.

What are the possible downsides to using some other browser? will I still be able to access everything?

Will some of my stuff get scrambled? Can I email Word documents? Are there complications?

news from the alternate web browsers

ps WHO CARES?

steal my info- what are you going to do with it genius?

Oh great, wonder how long that will take. I've been having probs. My system is so loaded, I will get Firefox when they get the latest version up to speed.

In the meantime, I have to use IE7 as my default browser or Norton won't work and who knows what else? I'm having probs with IE7 and downloaded IE8 beta but don't trust it yet.

It is tricky to uninstall IE7, there is no button for it in add/remove programs like most of my other ones, so I have to use the MS fix. I don't want to mess up my system any worse than it is until we figure out a few things.

I need IE7 because it works better; Netscape 7.01 my alternate does fine on FR but on most sites it won't work unless I upgrade which I'm not going to do. At least it served me well when I couldn't pull up anything in IE7; I got that fixed myself; and it was a struggle, used a long troubleshooting list on an MS page, finally got it working again, partly intuition and luck at the end.

I've tried everything I can think of to get it to start with a blank page. Even the tech couldn't get it to work. It first flashes to some MS page then kicks into MSM.com, no sense in running a scan because any fix may not be in it yet.

Videos haven't been loading right, take forever to buffer and play, didn't have that problem before we started messing with all these other probs.

Arrrrrgh!

Firefox here as well.

My web site statistics report shows IE 55% and Firefox 38% with the rest in Safari, Opera, etc. That’s a higher percentage Firefox than a general site would see, but it’s a technical site.

Google is really making a push for the browser market with Chrome and seeing as Gates was looking to challenge Google by trying to buy out Yahoo, I would not put it past the info nazi’s at Google to slam IE.

Chrome is nice and pretty quick, but I prefer Firefox.
