Post - Frustrated - Suggestions?


I use Opera as my internet browser, but there are some places on the web that can't be opened in Opera. So, I also have IE. NOW, there's a place I wanted to go that recommends using Firefox. The question is, is there not ONE software I can use, instead of three?!

Which browser do you suggest? I DO have reasons I like Opera.

Yes there is..

Opera is good, but I do prefer Firefox 2.0 over that one as well..

You can also load IE in Firefox, there's a module. I still mostly use IE6 as it's in my opinion the simplest and I'm a person that likes simplicity.

FIREFOX FTW!!1 Seriously, firefox is the fastest and most secure, and visually pleasing of the three.

I use Firefox too, and the "Open Tab in IE" extension works great...you view a page in IE right in another Firefox tab. Pretty easy!

Between the 4 computers here we have IE7, Firefox, Netscape, and Opera. I use Firefox as my default browser but use IE7 for my online tarot readings, mainly because that particular site recommends it.

I want to use the Thunderbird email set up but can't figure out how to make it work. Part of that is because I don't have the time to figure it out.

I use Firefox.

The only thing it didn't open for me as well as IE is Hebrew websites.
And besides, there's an addon to Firefox called IE Tab, which emulates a IE window through a firefox tab, making it possible to open a page through firefox, with all the features IE offers.

I ditched Opera completely after spending 4 hours configuring my wireless network just to find the other day Opera did not display the security menus on the online config tool...

Go Firefox...

My software never has bugs. It just develops random features.

I've got both Firefox and IE, and I use both of them regularly. I personally prefer the more streamlined IE for looks, but Firefox is a bit better.

The King Rides again!
