NETSCAPE ALL THE WAY....oh wait....it blows.......sorry... my mistake.. (IE6)

handisnacks 04-27-2003 11:14 PM

sweet, I just tiped the survey in favor of mozilla vs. ie6. 23 to 24 ;)

tek55 04-27-2003 11:32 PM

I can't stand Netscape, never tried Opera, but I use windows, so IE it is! :P

UnnDunn 04-28-2003 04:06 AM

I'm a die hard Firebird user.

methodtim 04-28-2003 05:10 AM

IE, Netscape 7.02 and Opera 7.10. I try to use them all equally (don't ask me why, I'm just weird like that) but Opera is still way too buggy, so I'm waiting until those bloody Russians can get it together and provide a solid build.

Mozilla runs pretty good using KDE on Redhat 9.

basic ie, might have to check some of the others out.

b1m2x3 04-28-2003 11:15 AM

ie here... tried mozilla and opera, but i found them just plain dumb for my uses.

i like it simple :D

Ambition 04-28-2003 11:30 AM

I'm content with IE, haven't bothered to try anything else. A browsers a browser.... right?

SiN 04-28-2003 11:39 AM

as of last nite, i use Opera.

was using IE (MyIE actually, for the tabbed browsing)

so far, so good.

i may try Mozilla and see which i like better..ive used Phoenix a bit in the past and liked it.

:)

heh, nope ;)

Try out Opera and Phoenix or Mozilla. Big differences, not the least of which is being more secure than IE.

MyIE2

GreasyP 04-28-2003 09:38 PM

MyIE2 here. I love everything about it... I tried Mozilla, but it never seems to display web pages correctly. And yes, I know that's the fault of the web page designers much more than the Mozilla programmers, but that doesn't fix the problem. :)

d4in 04-29-2003 02:23 PM

I'm just too lazy to install anything that doesn't come with the OS or can update itself (auto windows update)

I'm curious, what are some of these pages? I've never had a problem with Mozilla's page rendering so I'd like to see.

krazykemist 04-30-2003 04:08 AM

Windoze Box: Opera 6.1
Mandrake Box: Konqueror

username 04-30-2003 07:20 AM

On my Mac - Safari
Windows - IE
Linux - Mozilla

bundy 04-30-2003 06:40 PM

Mozilla, always.
three cheers for open-source software.

Mister B 04-30-2003 07:16 PM

I use Opera 7

I tried Mozilla, but the tabbed browsing isn't as good. It won't load a new page into a tab when you click it.

Opera's mouse gestures are a lot better too. Whenever you go back and forth, it doesn't reload the page everytime which makes it much quicker.

For pages with lots of pics (titty board) Opera sucks. It scrolls very choppy when loading the pics.

txd 05-01-2003 12:53 AM

Definately Mozilla/Pheonix where possible.

You have two choices to get a page to load into a new tabbed window in mozilla

1) Right click and chose "Open link in new tab"

2) Go to Edit \Preferences\Tabbed Browsing and Check ""Middle-click, Control+click, or Control+enter on links in a web page"

Conclamo Ludus 07-14-2003 12:18 PM

I use Mozilla at home and Firebird at work. I will never go back to IE after having the features of tabbed browsing and pop-up killers. I have trouble now and then with plug-ins but I have been very pleased with both. For those who have never used tabbed browsing: Try it, it will keep you forever. Dedicate a couple of days to getting used to it, and you will wonder how you ever used IE6. It will make both the internet and porn a whole new experience. :D

bodypainter 07-14-2003 12:33 PM

Safari but thinking about switching back to Omniweb.

Speed_Gibson 07-14-2003 02:37 PM

My first choice is Opera 6.05 (6.06b when I reinstall) with O7.11 a close second - mozilla is a very good backup and IE is banned from connecting to the internet in my firewall settings immediately after windows is installed.

I use Moz or Konqueror in linux normally

Fearless_Hyena 07-14-2003 04:05 PM

WOW...Mozilla is actually ahead of IE6 right now at 40/36 -- that's pretty cool! waiting for a new Firebird release....

flamingpeach 07-14-2003 04:12 PM

I use opera. mozilla and IE...I like them all for different reasons.

I use IE for my default browser because it starts up quickly..it works with links like aim greetings, and yahoo mail. I use Opera when I plan on having alot of webpages open. And Mozilla is great for the add-ons you can install (spiderzilla, leech etc).

I'm terrible at just sticking to one. :)

human 07-14-2003 06:10 PM

Opera mostly, ided as IE though...

Lynx the rest. Real men look at binary dumps of jpgs.

spectre 07-14-2003 06:40 PM

Mozilla. Used to only use IE, but I like the tabbed browsing and I don't have any problems with popups. :)

webfiend 07-14-2003 07:47 PM

I use Mozilla as my primary browser on each of the platforms I use. Second choices vary, though: IE6 on Windows, Konqueror on Linux, and OmniWeb 4.5 beta on Mac.

Nefir 07-14-2003 08:30 PM

Opera has been my browser of choice since version 7 came out. It might look like a bloated mess when you first install it, but after some customizations and tweaking, its a very slick and speedy browser, much better than anything Microsoft can throw at it these days.

denton 07-15-2003 02:00 AM

I just upgraded to Mozilla 1.4 and the download manager wasn't working so I got Firebird and am using that. I need to figure out an easy way to transfer my bookmarks though.

Also, when I access my own web page, it looks like some gophers made black tunnels across it...never had that problem before I updated to Moz 1.4. Very puzzling to me.

I get those lines now and then on some websites too. Not sure why.

65 356c 07-15-2003 10:43 PM

i have been using opera since version 5 i think. i LOVE the find in page search in the toolbar and i really like mouse gestures. i also like being able to save all the pictures in a web page (titty board).those are the reasons i havent switched to mozilla...

is there a good and easy way to save all the pictures in mozilla/phoenix?

macmanmike6100 07-16-2003 12:33 AM

Safari all the way! Talk about slim and fast, plus it's an Apple product <wink>

nulltype 07-16-2003 06:21 PM

Mozilla/Firebird has everything the competition has, and usually more. They only reason to ever not use it is if a site is made to only work with IE, and it's usually still possible even then, unless the site uses all sorts of propriety non-standard MS crap that any sensible browser cannot understand. In such cases, I will load up IE to view the page, but this happens very rarely as I have found that most websites that don't work with Mozilla aren't really worth looking at.

kod 07-16-2003 07:39 PM

Lynx ;)

hawkeye 07-17-2003 10:24 PM

IE 5.0

Jeff 07-17-2003 11:12 PM

I use one called MyIE2. I think the tabbing on this is superior. Has pop-up blocker, mouse-gestures, just a ton of features. Never had a problem with it.

The Bolshevist 07-19-2003 09:48 PM

Mozilla/Firebird (as of today.) Faster for dialups, less rexes. Also like saying NO to The Man From Redmond.
