I stopped using IE completely. Opera wasn't worthy replacement but Firefox sure is - GoFuckYourself.com

AkiraSS · 12-30-2004, 11:34 AM

With the exception of StatsRemote's use of IE, I am now 99% using firefox.
Currently the main rig. has been running for a week, with the browser left open - heavy use, like 30+ windows open, and not a single problem. I'm very satisfied.

Welcome to the club you will never go back...

Corleone · 12-30-2004, 11:35 AM

same here.. I love fire fox

+ you should replace outlook with thunderbird.. the spam filter is great

PSGuru · 12-30-2004, 11:36 AM

I like Opera better just for the mouse gestures, makes browsing real easy

psili · 12-30-2004, 11:37 AM

Ctrl+click, Ctrl+tab -- I love tabbed browsing.

I still get a glitch on embedded videos and an error being thrown when I close the browser, but that's about the only problem.

bignasty · 12-30-2004, 11:38 AM

I agree, I love firefox, only thing I use IE for anymore is just to see how my sites look in them since most people still use it.

TheFrog · 12-30-2004, 11:40 AM

im thinking about switching from opera myself

xlogger · 12-30-2004, 11:59 AM

ya im using firefox 100% now.

Shooter · 12-30-2004, 12:03 PM

Is there anything special about Firefox besides tabbed browsing? I've been using Crazy Browser for a while now and it has that too.

Downloading now...

mortenb · 12-30-2004, 12:41 PM

Check out the extensions library. Firefox has tons of really cool extensions that does just about anything.

I use Firefox for all my surfing except my online banking. My banks software was built specifically for IE.

I LOVE Firefox

pxxx · 12-30-2004, 12:43 PM

I couldn't agree with you anymore.

I am 100% firefox, i had one use for IE, but i was able to get it working with firefox, so IE is dropped.

Checking them out now, nice looking stuff

And the increased speed in loading pages was already enough to make me happy

Paco, of Large Cash. · 12-30-2004, 12:51 PM

Yup ... Mo's Firefox rocks! With the exception of Nutscraper 7.2, I use no other, unless forced to check compatibility issues.
IE sucks ASS, and not very well!

KRL · 12-30-2004, 12:52 PM

100% Firefox

MickeyG · 12-30-2004, 01:58 PM

firefox crashes on me every once in awhile. That and how do you make it play a .wmv file instead of downloading it first?

justfreemovies · 12-30-2004, 02:00 PM

me too firefox rox

nofx · 12-30-2004, 02:01 PM

dling firefox now.

i've been using Opera for the past few months, i'm going to see if i like Firefox better.

azguy · 12-30-2004, 02:01 PM

Yep, I'm also with Firefox for over a month now.

More Booze · 12-30-2004, 02:03 PM

Ah, I love these firefox-threads. They are always filled with so much firefox-love. ;)

Firefox roXX, thats for sure!

tigerallenyim · 12-30-2004, 02:18 PM

I've been using Opera for quite some time now. And it rocks! Heard firefox is awesome, but haven't found many things that would me switch over from Opera to firefox. But hey, anything but IE!

mastermikex · 12-30-2004, 02:51 PM

firefox definitely rocks, especially with the Noia theme...i even have an extension that tells me the weather and temperature right on the top toolbar....the only thing i don't like about firefox is the download manager...everytime i save a picture or something, it pops up...kinda annoying

It's funny though... the vast majority of the download sites start by using mirror sites and they do automated md5 checks to ensure file integrity. A digital sig does not automatically insure that a windows app hasnt been modified (depending on the signing settings) and frankly I would be surprised if the errors he had weren't because of spyware that IE let through. He doesnt understand obviously that the VAST majority of spyware / malware that is installed either comes in nicely signed packages or through lameass activex holes that they never bother to plug. I had an un filewalled sp2 ie for about 45 minutes after I got my new machine. It had TWO searchbars within that 45 minutes. I finally found the UNINSTALL IE instructions out there and since then I have had ZERO spyware. I dont even bother to run my scanners more than once a week and NONE of my scanners have found anything but cookies since then. (11 hours after ie was first run-to downlaod firefox and get one other app I scanned with s&d and had 97 traces of actual spyware. fucking ie)

brand0n · 12-30-2004, 03:02 PM

what i dont understand is why dont spyware and shit like that redirect to the proper exploit page? im sure there has got to be something for firefox+ opera and any other browser you could find.

mikesouth · 12-30-2004, 03:30 PM

Firefox 100%

What impresses me is that in less than 2 months Firefox has captured 25% of the browser market...thats solid and its a testament to just how good firefox is and how shitty IE is
