Opera... two thumbs up! I've used IE, Firefox and Opera extensively and find that Opera is FAR superior to the other browsers in speed, stability and functionality, especially speed ... except for those few sites which have security features that only IE can utilize. Neither the Firefox nor the Opera email client is as good as Outlook however, especially if you use Office. You have to chose the no-pop-up option for Opera, no big deal... IE doesn't have it. Plus IE puts this huge "secret" (not just "hidden" but totally inaccessible) Temp file in your system folder that will not empty without dumping the whole program... which I did after this file grew to over 100 megs, and who knows what is in there, as it is one of those "undocumented features" of IE. Anybody using Linspire (Linux) 4.5? Jones
