QUOTE(mipadi @ Jun 1 2006, 1:03 PM)  Of course, there is the further point that I could at least modify Firefox to make it faster, which I can't do with IE.  I started using Firefox for reasons that have already been discussed in here (speed, tabs, etc). But as Michael said, since FF is open-source, there are so many extensions that customize the browser for the user, and you can't get that with IE. No matter how many updates are made with IE, I'll still be sticking with Firefox for the time being.

Mozilla also has this cool "colorzilla" extension. I don't have to open Photoshop to get hex codes and can eyedrop the colors on the webpages opened in FF. Pretty awesome :D

QUOTE(SyKoKiNeSiS @ Apr 4 2006, 2:08 AM) Firefox is just ugly. i guess you mean ugly like appearance? well, you can download different themes so that it looks different, which is what i'm going to do right now. they even have one called pimpzilla.

^^Proves all browsers are superior to IE, you should read all the pages. I still use IE because it's convenient, but those articles really make me want to use Mozilla. |

Eh, I use IE but also have Firefox installed for cross-browser checking and really... it's not that bad if you have a good set of anti-virus/pop-up programs installed. I don't remember the last time my computer got a virus. I don't tend to use it for downloading, though, and I've never ordered anything online with it *shrug* I suppose I just know my way around it better, but Firefox feels clunky and it confuses me having so many windows open at once. And tabs and windows; what is the deal with that? Its enough to make a girl's brain implode ^_^

Firefox: add-ons and themes
IE: nope Firefox: tabs! IE: copycat tabs someday Firefox: Open in IE tab IE: FF? what FF? Firefox: Built in rss IE: nah Firefox: CORRECTLY DISPLAYS EVERYTHING IE: supports crappy coding (marquees are tacky anyway) Firefox: Download manager IE: nah Firefox: Safer, open source, etc IE: standard on all computers Any freaking questions? Seriously, I don't understand why you WOULDN'T use firefox. Or Mozilla. Heck, even Safari or Opera. But not IE. |
