    I'm Not Using Internet Explorer Much Anymore

    Especially when simply visiting a website can result in hackers stealing your credit card info and other personal info:

      I love Mozilla, and Mozilla Firefox.

      i kicked Internet Exploiter to the curb long ago and use Opera.

      Unfortunately I still have to load IE up for navigating a few sponsor sites. Too many people still using ASP and letting frontpage take over their lives.

          Everyone should download Mozilla or Firefox (or both):

          www.download.com

          or

              opera is just as good if not more streamlined. The tabbed browsing is very tight in opera and memory management is much tighter.

                  I know what you mean. I have a few crucial sites that only work with IE. Damn it.

                              it drives me fucking nuts that I have to open a seperate app for a specific sponsor. I got a tabbed browser for a reason.

                                  i think so, I would assume so.

                                  It has google ads in the top corner of the app but ya learn to ignore it after awhile. doesnt interfeer at all. Also has built in email client, a good pretty one at that and even goes as far as having a built in notes block. SO mnay addons to it it's rediculous, none of which are syste heavy at all. Load your initial window and additional tabs ctrl-N and your all set for the day. Fucker won't crash.

                                  Walk through all the settings carefully to customize to your surfing habbits. Everything is very well laid out for preferences though. My only complaiont is that I can't figure out how to shut off flash in it.

                                          Okay... I'm making this post with Opera. It's pretty cool too, so far! Thanks for the recommendation iwantchixxx.

                                                  I'm having a lot of fun learning about this Opera Browser. I'm like a kid in a candy store.

                                                      oh, few tips.

                                                      press center mouse button to load page in new browser, or change settings so it loads in new tab. I have it set to load new browser if it's a page that I think I will close off the second it laods. Such as checkign out tgps. That way youc an just throw teh cursor tot he corner and shut the window fast.

                                                      Also, this browser supports gestures. You can program it to do what you want really. In auto gesture mode it learns your habbits. if it see's that you move your cursor to the corner very fast and click the 'x' a lot, it will hit the 'x' for you eventualy when you move the mouse like that.. every day mousing habbits get macro'ed... follow me?

                                                      If opera is already loaded and you hit the icon, it won't load a new window, it will load a new blank tab for you. Very handy to keep tray clutter under control.

                                                                                          One GFY specific feature that's better with Opera.... this black box where I type for this post is the same width as it would be in IE. I know that in both Mozilla and Firefox this box was much narrower.

                                                                                          I recommend trying out the free version and then upgrading if you don't like the google ads. I didn't really mind them, but I upgraded anyway just to help support the developers.

                                                                                          I'm also using the built in email feature to see how I like that. It seems pretty nice too!

                                                                                          And I don't know about you, but I like to copy and paste things from websites temporarily. The "notes" feature on this browser is perfect for that.

                                                                                          Try it!

With all their R&D money they have to work with they should be the top dog, but after seeing some of these new alternatives, its clear IE is lagging.

I just wish more site developpers would take into consideration that they need to keep their code clean so all browser can read it clearly. Some things Opera cant even load. Trying mozilla on them causes explorer crashes lol.

I can even use my before and back buttons on my mouse to navigate pages and it has a drop down to save entries in forms.
                                                                                                                                                      It feels just like IE, but hopefully I wont have to worry about browser hijacking.

                                                                                                                                                                  Never mind, e-mail just arrived. If anyone orders it take about an 1 hour to get your registration unlock code.

                                                                                                                                                                          I can see that indeed.

                                                                                                                                                                          OK, so how is it able to perform so much better than IE?

                                                                                                                                                                          What technology is giving it all this speed?

                                                                                                                                                                          I was always a Netscape fan in the way back days. Then got into IE. Tried a few alternatives way back also, but didn't see much advantage over the main two browsers.

                                                                                                                                                                          But I'll admit after trying both Firefox and Opera. Opera is the clear winner, in terms of performance and features and blows away IE.

                                                                                                                                                                          I'm surprised more people haven't switched over.

                                                                                                                                                                          I'm going to keep all 3 since its a good way to see how a site design lays out with the variations.

But one ting I can't figure out is how to get rid of the stuff to the right of the address bar - like the google search, zoom, security button, etc. I like my address bar to be as long as possible for some reason, lol.

                                                                                                                                                                              So how do I get rid of those, or extend the address bar pusing the other stuff off the screen?

If not I will just use this to test the look of pages I make.

                                                                                                                                                                                          OK, so how is it able to perform so much better than IE?

                                                                                                                                                                                          What technology is giving it all this speed?

                                                                                                                                                                                          I was always a Netscape fan in the way back days. Then got into IE. Tried a few alternatives way back also, but didn't see much advantage over the main two browsers.

                                                                                                                                                                                          But I'll admit after trying both Firefox and Opera. Opera is the clear winner, in terms of performance and features and blows away IE.

                                                                                                                                                                                          I'm surprised more people haven't switched over.

                                                                                                                                                                                          I'm going to keep all 3 since its a good way to see how a site design lays out with the variations.
                                                                                                                                                                                          Good idea, I wish more webmasters would test shit on different browser platforms.

                                                                                                                                                                                          As for the speed thing...

                                                                                                                                                                                          IE reads code differently. It renders what is inside a table before continuing to read the rest of the code. If the first table on the page has a 2 meg image file it will try to load that before rendering the next snippet. If it takes too long it will 'multitask' and move on to the next snippet of code. Already it's lagged far behind how other browsers do it. I think opera (from what I have noticed) gets the html loaded first, renders the text, tables, colors, fonts etc THEN goes after images and graphics.

                                                                                                                                                                                          Try finding a very slow server and loading a complex page on it, You'll see what I mean. It gets the page layout and text and colors n shit first and then loads the images so if it does time out on slow servers it at least gave ya something navigatable and readable.
