Web browser

[The G-Man]

Which web browser do you like? I like Mozilla Firefox. I love the tabbed browinsg and the fact that it's powered by google, plus it's Microsoft free. Check out the very bottom of the homepage on http://www.mlb4u.com/ for my anti-Microsoft, anti-Gates, pro-Mozilla slogan. I gave the guy the idea, since he hates Microsoft as much as I do.

 

MICROSOFT IS MACROHARD, FIREFOX WILL FIREGATES!

Other.

I'm a Firefox guy. Built in pop up stopper, tabbed browsing, etc. IE is just too damned buggy, and too susceptible (sp?) to spyware and unwanted "toolbar" plugins

[wekse]

you forgot some choices like opera, safari, etc....opera is nice but i'm using FF right now...IE is trash.

[Balsa]

Firefox for sure. I get weather updates, tabbed browsing, mouse gestures (really, really useful), less buggy, toolbar favorites, and just easier to use.

[Marco4]

Oh yeah, Firefox is king. Though I did use to use Opera for a while. Firefox all the way now.

Not listed Safari (its a Mac thing)

Mozilla rules, anyone still using IE needs to move into the 21st century. IE blows (it's Microsoft).

[NoPepper]

Which web browser do you like?

 

Firefox. IE doesn't run on BSD & Linux.

[cubsfaninfla]

Firefox all the way!

[CoolHandLuke]

my life sucked until I found out about firefox.

[sethuel1]

To those of you that use IE.

 

Use it for a week. then run ad-aware. take note of the number of spyware traces you've picked up.

I've been a Mozilla guy since the introduction of Firebird (which spawned Firefox). However, Mozilla's email client, Thunderbird, needs some more work.

Me too. I started using Firebird (Firefox) at version 0.7.

 

 

If you really want to go with an alternative browser, try K-Meleon.

Give it some time. They've been on the market since November and have already cut profits of the entire Microsoft corporation by 5%. Also, is there a way we can make this site viewable only in Mozilla? That would rock.

And lose the 34% who use IE (which is probably actually around 64%)? It is NEVER smart to tailor a site to be used by a specific browser.

You can download Mozilla for free, and it only takes a few minutes AT MOST if you have a slow connection, instantly if you have a fast connection.

Not everyone has the luxury of picking their browser of choice, due to work constraints.

Here's the site where you can download Mozilla: http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/

You can do it at home. And talk to your boss if you don't have Mozilla at work. That site talks about the benifits of Mozilla.

CPatt has an excellent point about work constraints. Many companies adopt very specific policies regarding software that can be installed on corporate clients (a decade in IT will tell you that is a great idea). Not to mention the fact that you shouldn't be using company property for your personal "business". [-X

 

It's plain and simple, web development 101 says you should never tailor a site to a specific browser, especially if it is one used my the minority of your audience.

Whatever. You shouldn't even be on this site at work. This is why we have bad production. I read American corporations lose $3 Billion a year in productivity due to workers not working and doing things like this.
