conversion

[ringsofbenzene]

Fine. You people are evil. I am converting to the darkside. Everyone has spoken of the wonders of firefox. Maybe it works better than when I last used it. I shall be retrying it this veteran's day.

That's what everyone said. I just read the funniest thing ever from Catallarchy: The future road to surfdom is paved with distributed software. Heh.

Well, I shall see how much I like it this vacation. So you all stay tuned.

Not really, but all the same.

I think it blows. For some reason, my IE runs much quicker. Maybe it's just cause I am special...

[ringsofbenzene]

I don't think Firefox runs any faster than IE, but there are other things that make it beneficial. Currently, I can't open PDF files within my browser, which is sort of pissing me off. And i have done everything to get it to work.

works great for me|

[ringsofbenzene]

yeah well, thats what you all say. but i am used to my browser of choice and any deviations make me nervous.

[indeathwerise]

think outside the box :) tabbed browsing is yummy :)

[ringsofbenzene]

Um. MyIE2 has had tabbed browsing forever.

I mean, when my friend ashlle1 just got into firefox, I was already asking why she wasnt using tabbed browsing.

at first it was tabbed browsing which made me hesitant to switch from netscape to IE.

MyIE2 has a lot of crap, just except the security features.

okay then.

Enjoy the darkside force lightning.

Re: okay then.

[ringsofbenzene]

It has lightning? As long as I don't prance around in an aluminum foil hat.

Hey. Shush. No making fun of that.

BTW, I never downloaded all those pictures. Might you be a darling and send them all again. Every single one of them?

excellent

mouse gestures, adblock, weatherbar, downthemall, the popup blocker, heck there's even a livejournal extension...crushes IE. muhahaha.

Re: excellent

[ringsofbenzene]

Eh, I get most if not all of that with MyIE2.

The reason for my switch is because I havent been able to solve my problem with being able to load pdf files in the browser itself along with a few other things.

Re: excellent

[patza]

oh, at least you weren't just using bare IE. but i bet it still had plenty of security holes :-P and i'm not sure if MyIE2 adds tabbed browsing, but, um...go firefox!

Re: excellent

[ringsofbenzene]

Yes, yes it has tabbed browsing. Which was one of the reasons I fell in love with it.

Yes, it has security holes, but as long as you are careful, you don't have the problems. Caution is the key.
