#1 Post by Shoyru_Lover »

Ohh Blinblue introduced me to firefox and wow! It's soooososo much better than IE :D I love it! It has tabbed browsing, pop up blocking and whoa.. just looks so much more cleaner and pleasent :)

Netscape 7.2 is also really nice, and it's a lot like Firefox. It comes with its own version of AIM, which is exactly like AIM with less features, and email program, a 'composer' which helps you make websties, and it's own toolbar which sorta resembles the Google Toolbar (built-in search, popup blocker, etc.). It also has tabbed browsing which is weird at first but in the end it's much easier to use. I believe the only major difference between Firefox and Netscape is that Firefox has a banner blocker, and Netscape doesn't.

I just downloaded Firefox. I LOVE how I don't get as many pop-ups, with IE I use to get tons of them. Thanks for the tip! :)

Sometimes I feel like the only person in the world that likes IE and has had no problems with it.

Not a problem :) Another thing I love about this browser is that IE kept crashing on me. Nothing here yet. The tabbed browsing is great! and the book marking system and overall look is just.. wow! So much eye-candy :D

In addition, it actually remembers me when i log into forums. No more logging in every time I visit ^_^

I've never had any trouble with IE except that I had a terrible problem with pop-ups and now I haven't gotten a single one with Firefox. I love the tabbed browsing too, it's so convenient. It really doesn't look that much different to me though, maybe I need to mess with the settings a little bit!

Firefox is my backup when IE messes up.

Bah, you'll have to cuss me out and skin me alive to make me use anything else than IE. I'm sorry, but after using it for all the time I've used the internet, it's kind of hard to switch. And with a pop-up blocker, the windows in the Neopets Battledome won't come up and I won't be able to fight. So it's IE for me until it gets nuked or something.

The little Firefox icon is cute, though. :3

I've been using firefox since mid-june I think. The only problems I have with it are the plug-ins and if I look at my look-up on neo, that comes up messed up a bit. Other than that, I love it. I love how much faster things load on it.

Firefox sounds(and looks) nice, but I rather stay with IE because I'm used to it and its commands. I never had a problem with it (that didn't concern my computer problems, that is) either. I'm staying with IE for now. :)

And yeah, I find the icon image quite cute. <3

All of the computers in my school this year are using Firefox. It is indeed really nice.
Heh... I got all confused when I first used the computers this year. I was looking for IE. XD

I started using it about a month ago. I use it most of the time now. I like the tabs now that I've got the hang of them. It's nicer than having all my windows cluttered up at the bottom.

Plus, it's got shiny buttons. That's what won me over. ^_^
