What the hell IE!?

[The_wand_mirror]

I don't know if anyone noticed that i was gone for a really long time and suddenly thought i was back and then again not and then again i was here again and after that i was gone again.. Now i finally found out what caused my difficulties getting on this site lol. It was my INTERNET EXPLORER !

How can this be? Is it corrupted or something? First i thought it was my internet connection because the huge amount of files posted on this site.. But it was my IE ? -.- what the hell? anyone ever experienced this before?

Btw, im using firefox now and i kind of agree that it is much better than IE from windows..

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

I have no problems with IE. Good to have you back.

 

[Kaitech[SanD]]

Firefox is bad in it's ways. But yes I was thinking, oh, ain't seen you in a while!

 

[Jacek]

opera is the best browser on earth

Yeah it has a pretty annoying 'download sequence' which i tried to get rid of but it doesn't seem to go away =/

Thx anyways for the re-welcome

 

[ZypherXII]

Well, that was wierd. :S .. I never liked IE. Go Firefox!

 

[robot-dude]

I've never had any problems with either. but i use firefox for myspacing.

 

[Gilles]

Firefox for the win! IE sucks, Safari sucks on a PC, and I've never tried Opera.

 

[The Last Istari]

What's with all the playa hatin' against IE? I use it and I have no problems.

 

[Cheeder]

Why for only Myspace?

 

[Gilles]

They all do the job of browsing, but I find Firefox just plain faster. I have seen statistic saying most browsers are faster than IE.

I also like the overall appearance. I like the little Favorites bar.

 

[Samuraid]

Blacked-out bookmarks, huh?

Opera has its strong points, but it does have a problem with caching that no other browser I use has.

 

[robot-dude]

Because most layouts look best with firefox, and i also use it for other stuff if i got it up , and heres my firefox.

Plus firefox is best for clearing history, and loads more

plus i like the apperence.

oh yeah here is a list of "Web Browser's"

Internet Explorer
Firefox
Safari
Opera
Netscape
Opera Mini

it installs software without asking you for permission

 

[Kaitech[SanD]]

It has the worst interface ever

 

[super_chiken]

Firefox is good... I have a version of it on my portable drive, but on my desktop I use Safari (the private version, 3.0.4)

 

[DarkDenizen]

It has the worst interface ever

Why do you think that?

IE does suck. It's slow, has shit for security, and doesn't behave properly on lots of sites. Opera sucks because... well, I don't know, but I'm sure it sucks for some reason. Firefox is the way to go.

Yes, IE is slow, because it is made by windows!

 

[DarkDenizen]

Yeah, I know it's slow, but what does that have to do with its interface?

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

IE and Firefox are just about equally fast.

 

[Kimbo]

IE is slow for me and I get horrible lag and compatibility with things yes. I love firefox, i find it clean, crisp and gets the job done, iv tried opera and i dont like it.

 

[robot-dude]

Internet explorer loads everything up at once
fire fox loads text/links first before images.

Give negative rep to this fool.

I learned how to CnP text when I was 3, and I guess he expects a medal for his new achievement?

 

[Samuraid]

I have not had that experience. Especially on computers with less RAM, IE ran noticeably slower than Firefox. (It starts up faster as some of the libraries it uses are already loaded by the operating system, but general tabbed browsing is slower to respond.)

Is your father a computer?

, Anyways why i cant load hive with IE while i can with firefox?
And oh.. for those who also use firefox how can i get the download thingy normal. its annoying me !!!!

 

[Technomancer]

When I'm booted into Mac, I use Safari.

When I'm booted into Windows, I use Firefox.



The last time I used Internet Explorer was when I was looking through my applications folder, and wondered to myself:
"What the hell is this doing in my applications folder."

I opened it to see if I could find a reason why it was even on my computer, and came to the conclusion of 'Shits and giggles'.

No but my father used to teach me..

What problem ?

 

[ZypherXII]

Internet Explorer
Firefox
Safari
Opera
Netscape
Opera Mini

Just wanted to add some additional browsers to this list.

Konqueror (Web Browser for KDE-based Linux)
Flock (Alternative Firefox based Web Browser)

 

[robot-dude]

Ok, and if i find a site that allows me too change my IE Interface i would IE alot more.

But at the moment i prefer to use firefox because its all nice and tidy, and mainly its good for using html.

 

[ZypherXII]

.. and mainly its good for using html.

Wouldn't that be the deffinition of a browser? A program that visualize html?

 

[robot-dude]

Yes but some browsers can't read decent html. So the html script messes up and does not show what your script was programmed to show.

 

[GST_Nemisis]

i like ie coz im lazy and im not gunna change it ....im still on ie 6..but hey whats not broken needs no fixing.

 

[robot-dude]

I prefer browsers with tabs thats why i upgraded to IE 7

 

[Samuraid]

What problem ?

It tends to cache pages over-zealously. I find I have to constantly force-refresh pages to get them to update. Whether this is due to Opera ignoring HTTP header RFCs, or Opera is following the rules and all other browsers have added their own behavioral changes to prevent such caching, I honestly don't know for sure. (Maybe it would be a good thing to test!) Either way, it makes browsing much more cumbersome in some cases.

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

I got the information from a somewhat slightly outdated article, but it should still be usable.

In the article Opera comes out the best out of all the browsers tested, IE and Firefox have different strenghts but are generally the same performance wise.

The browsers has been tested on: Cold start, Warm start, Rendering CSS, Rendering table, Script speed, Multiple images & History.

Opera certainly is reasonably fast.
