i use firefox, but theres 2 problems...

1.on some site you cant scroll all the way across the page so some of it is cut off.
2.when u click "clear all posts" or whever it is, on this site nothing happens. i have to go into internet settings and clear the cache and history, then i have to log back in again.... quite annoying!
other than that i think its great!

It's the best browser i ever used.I've been using it since it was called Firefox.I would recommend this browser to everyone,especially to people who are dial-up,because it really speeds up opening pages on web.It opens a bit longer than IE but it works much more better and stable. Can someone please tell me what are the improvements in fox 1 comparing to version 0.9?

I use Mozilla, Firefox's big brother. It performes perfectly.
I have been using Netscape (which was codenamed Mozilla) since version 1.1. I still remember how it was to get the browser which showed background photos! (Was it Netscape 1.1N?)

If some pages are not displayed correctly it is not the browser's fault, but the encoding of the web page. A lot of the HTML programmers do not test their pages on anything else than Internet Explorer, so if their pages look good they think everything is all right. The amount of bad HTML on WWW is disturbing. The problem is even increasing!

Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, Konqueror etc. have to start slower than IE. The reason is that when Windows loads/starts Internet Explorer is already started and runs in the background. Microsoft har of course done this to kill all competitors.

If you don't like tabbed browsing, don't use it! Mozilla/Firefox also works like any other browser by showing up in the task bar if you use multiple windows.

Opera is free. If you want to pay you get a version without commercials. A nice deal, isn't it?

i'm using netscape 7.2 (mozilla /5.0).. its really great.
and faster too i think cos it first downloads the text content and then the photos... which can be somewhat annoying with ie cos it downloads it all at once. this has tabbed browsing as well, i think ie should include that in their next version.
will try firefox though!
