Re: Internet Browser
firefox is the best! i dont see why you wouldn't want to use it. no popups that popup continuasly, and a handy tab. (even though mozilla and opera have that too) the cool thing about opera is that you can just right click and move the mouse right or left and it will go forward or back a page.

Re: Internet Browser
Yeah, but Opera is a commercial browser. Even Microsoft hasn't lowered to that level.

Re: Internet Browser
I use Internet Explorer. Why would anyone want to use a different one when Windows already comes with one?

Re: Internet Browser
Internet Explorer has:

no features like
-popup-blocker
-cookie manager
-password manager
-download manager
a lot of security holes
no skins
intigrated spyware
(I heard in SP2 they have changed a bit at it, but SP2 is the LAST thing I'll install.)

Anyone else wants to go on?

Re: Internet Browser
IE uses for the "Related Links" Button a service called Alexa. This software stores everything you enter in forms, where you go in the internet, your IPadress and some more things, even if you don't use it.

Re: Internet Browser
I've just downloaded and installed Mozilla, which I am currently using. It certainly has more features than IE, but the whole Java environment can be a bit annoying. And is it my imagination, or does stuff seem to load faster in Mozilla than in IE?

Re: Internet Browser

Anyway possible it loads faster than IE.

Oh yeah, a point worth considering; the part of the United States government responsible for computer security recommended that people switch to Firefox because IE was so full of security holes.

Re: Internet Browser
The "German Federal Armed Forces" (Stupid word. But there was no other in the dictionary for "Bundeswehr") also switched to Linux because of too many security holes in MS products.

If I would be programmer at MS, I might be somehow depressed.

Re: Internet Browser
Hmmm . . . Interesting! What's the difference between Mozilla and Firefox?
Andi
29 Aug 2004 19:02:34
Re: Internet Browser
Nothing. Firefox is more designed as a single product. Mozilla is the whole suit. I hope that's right.

Re: Internet Browser
If you get a pop-up, just use ALT+F4 to kill it. They aren't that much of a problem, and IE works fine for me. I switched to IE rather then Netscape because so many sites only load in IE.

Re: Internet Browser
Currently IE has mor html functions. If you use IE it's also easier to use the buttons for the text format. Mozilla has in that direction too less functions.

Re: Internet Browser
IE supports DHTML.

That is reason enough not to use it.

Re: Internet Browser
I must be really behind! What's DHTML?
G3K
30 Aug 2004 20:03:35
Re: Internet Browser
It's an extension to HTML developed by Microsoft which allowed basic animation... unfortunately, only Internet Explorer supported it, and its abilities were so restricted that it became pointless but insanely popular among badly-designed websites.

Re: Internet Browser
It's a proxomitron reference. When you surf the web, your browser details are sent to various servers. But you can obfuscate such details with various HTTP header editors. SpaceBison is one of the ready-made headers that comes with the HTTP editing software, The Proxomitron.

Of course, once you delve into it, it is easy to code your own HTTP header editors. Mine's called the Drumnbachomitron; a name that will surely catch on.
