Re: Firefox or IE

Re: Firefox or IE
I use both (for web design previewing) but when I'm just surfing the net, Firefox is my choice.

Brakk, not sure you've seen the addon, but there's a IE tab addon for Firefox now (emulates 5.x). Also, check out the web developer addon, firebug, and NoScript. The only time I run IE anymore is for those small nitpiky sites that should be formatted right off the web.

Re: Firefox or IE
Firefox here. Im kinda paranoid about keyloggers, viruses and such, so Firefox + NoScript makes me feel alot safer.

Yea, the Web Developer addon is a godsend for web development. It allows you to simulate different resolutions, debug script real time, remove script, change script, and the like. It also allows you to mess with the CSS real time. It has saved me countless hours of bug hunts! I think you will definitely love that addon. These two are a must for you:
Firebug
Web Developer

ActiveX controls alone scare me away from IE.

Re: Firefox or IE
Firefox for me, unless I hit a site that for whatever reason doesn't display well on it (rare, these days).

Re: Firefox or IE
Firefox. Ever since college it has been Firefox or Safari (depending on whether I'm using a PC or Mac). IE seems to have a lot of uncessary problems for my liking and Firefox just feels right. I don't think I could use IE more than I do now and that isn't much.
Then there is that whole eating babies thing...heard it isn't good for ya.
