Hi, I have a question. When Mozilla Firefox came out, I tried both versions but I wasn't very impressed with the programs. So, I tried the Avant Browser and I really like it.
However, most people tell me that Firefox is better. So, my question is: Why is Firefox better than Avant?
Fred, I use both OPERA & AVANT & I have used MOZILLA FIREFOX. I prefer OPERA & AVANT. Both leave the last sessions for when you open them again. I found MOZILLA FIREFOX too large for me, but a lot of people swear by them. OPERA is larger than AVANT & has more features. AVANT is just right for what I need. To each his own.

Ive tried both opera and firefox. I can't uninstall opera and have (i thought) uninstalled firefox, but can't open certain files, get a message saying firefox won't allow it. confusing! Rage

I still use IE:6; but did download the new Firefox yesterday; and just downloaded this Deepnet Browser; looks like a cool browser.
I like the "image saving" feature about IE; it is one of the reason's I am so hooked to it; but intend to actively use all 3 (IE, Firefox, & Deepnet) for awhile; I do wish Yahoo & Ebay had toolbars for all 3 browsers; Yahoo has Mozilla bars, and Ebay may have them also, but haven't checked yet...........
I detest Netscape; for some reason I never warmed to it; and when you try to remove it; it is like a Hydra; you can never totally remove it..................
One of the things some will not come to grips with is, "security in a browser is best in it's annominity". That is, once it becomes "popular", there are those that have nothing better to do then find or create security holes.
I like Firefox, but it doesn't always load all the tools I have that I have to go with it. The XML Validator is great for those that need it.

Hi, I prefer FireFox over everything I have tried, I never cared for IE from day one when win95 came out, I also use Opera which is great also.

My Browser May 09, 2006 4:10 PM
I have always used IE 6 untill last month I downloaded IE 7.(FREE)
Tabbed browsing
Pishing filter
all new looks and ease of use and can be easly uninstalled if your not satisfied and I don't think I'll be trying another.
IE 7 looks nice but with it being a Beta version ...I would wait longer until more bugs are worked out.
There are about 5 beta versions going on for free download in Microsoft and I use one of the Windows Defender. I still would suggest waiting until more bugs are worked out before downloading IE 7. It looks nice ..... I agree and checked it out so many times tempted. I'm waiting longer .....
People do love that slimbrowser. It's been around a long time and I belong to many computer forums and haven't hard any pros with the exception that it is old... Other ones are more fun and exciting.
Slimbrowser does have the tabbed browsing & if you have trouble viewing this is one of the best smaller browsers around that offer good options.
alot of problems I have helped to solve has to do with the amount of privelage's a computer allows over the internet. I hate to wave my own flag but even microsoft agrees with me, unless you have a serious problem and need assistance correcting a problem, disable remote regestry it's only function is to allow anyone who has the knowledge to access your regestry through your browser while your browsing the internet and do as they please usually deleating DLL FILES ! which will cause programs to crash including a Browser.
I posted a list of Srevices that can be safely disabeled in this group (look in the arcives) and will only effect the abillity of a hacker to gain access to your computer. I have a pollicy the less that can be seen or accessed the better off I am. I really hate to say this but the truth be known all site's have hackers even this one!
They just recently upgraded v.7 of MSIE, but you have to download it, uninstall the old one, and then install the new one. Kind of a pain but I like this one even better then the first V.7 that came out.

I have to use both IE and FF and prefer FF because of its extensions, which give me specific functions relevant to my work. The down side is that sites such as care2 only work fully with IE - the popup windows when setting your profile do not display fully.
