Hi everybody,
I'm using normally IE, because I'm lazy :D. But I'm having Firefox too.
If something isn't working read, audio captcha, slow web, downloading more
than two files, I'm using Firefox.
But otherwise I'm using IE, because it's stupid Microsoft tool and is more
supported than others browsers.
With best regards,
Marek Durila

Re: Mozilla glitches and
reconsoderations of the browser
Hi Peter,
My experience has been just the opposite. I keep IE around for use
with a couple of websites, but otherwise find Firefox faster and less
glitchy. Neither is perfect, and I absolutely agree with your
suggestion that people keep at least two browsers on their
computers. One of the areas in which I feel IE has the edge is in
bookmarking. I find the favorites menu and the ability to manipulate
it in Windows explorer to be highly superior. to Mozilla's bookmark
system. Luckily, one does not need to use bookmarks in Firefox if one
does not want to. There is a Firefox add on called Plain Old
Favorites that I have been using for many years now. It adds the IE
Favorites menu to the menu bar of Firefox and makes the bookmarks
menu moot. The only drawback I have found is that sometimes the menu
takes a couple of seconds to open in Firefox while it opens instantly
in IE, but I have a massive Favorites collection when you add all of
the links in all of the subfolders, so that may be the cause in my
case. Also, unless the creator has added something I missed in recent
updates, in order to sort the Favorites you have added by name, you
have to open IE and do it there. But, those are the only two minor
annoyances I have found with this add on and it seriously beats
dealing with Firefox's bookmark system.
HTH,
Chris
