Can Anyone Recommend a Reliable Browser?

Re: Can Anyone Recommend a Reliable Browser?

I downloaded the Netscape and had nothing but problems, errors, and not responding. I deleted the Netscape, couldn't delete the McAfee, it wouldn't let me, so I had to delete the Spyware that I had, cleaned out my registry with the Registry Mechanic and things are looking up. The McAfee alsos checks for errors, waste files and fixes them.

I still use the IE though. It's not as fast, but then I think my computer may be outdated too. I have an HP Windows XP. But I got it for free from my stepson, so I can't complain!

Thanks Mariposa. If you're feeling adventurous (lol), I love the new one, SlimBrowser, that Race recommended. It's tons better than IE and Netscape and that's only after one day lol. The link is on this thread if you want to have a look :o)

Thanks, Amanda. It's worth a look at least, Opera sounds good too. Might have to test them both.....

Opera is good, but it's no better than Maxthon or SlimBrowser and both those are free. I'm not sure how it is now, but when I used Opera you either had to pay for it or there was advertising at the top of it.

Hi Amanda. My people recommend Mozilla's Foxfire. It's free and good. I used for a while as IE was getting atttacked pretty heavily by hackers. Go to KIM KOMANDO web site. She discusses Foxfire and you can down load it from her site. She is a great source for computer freeware/problem solving and all kinds of helpful stuff.

I am back on IE now (with Windows XP) and it seems better but I also have about 8 protective layers between me and the world. Like having sex in a snow suit.

Hi Glenn, long time no see. You have recommended that site before and, yes, it is excellent. I have used it a couple of occasions.

Cheers!

Re: Can Anyone Recommend a Reliable Browser?

I've heard IE 7 is good, you can download it at microsofts site (I think its still in beta). I personally use FF, but I wouldn't recommend netscape, they are WAY behind the times, they don't support many features that other browsers do.

HEY JUST A SECOND. 10 MINUTES OUT AND IE 7 CRASHED 4 TIMES FOR ME. I USE FIREFOX UNTIL IT NEED IE (cut and paste). Dale

I'd recommend Macecraft instead. It's much more conservative and safer.

Re: Can Anyone Recommend a Reliable Browser?

Hey Amanda

I tried bunch. Been using Mozilla Firefox for the last 2 yrs. I love it.

When I made my site I was using the preview in both firefox and IE. Since lot of people use IE. the setting I used for preview purpose only in IE is largest text under view text size option, that way I don't over lap anything as far as text/photos go.
In Mozilla there's a ;itt;e feature, if you press ctrl + it enlarges the page/ or ctrl- which decreases the page. If you use this feature. You will quickly realize that set ups are better than others when it comes to BV builder or any drag and drop website builder.

Okay now that I confused you. Good Luck...heh

This is an old post, btw, but seeing as I had to restore my system to new last week has regained a little relevance. Lol. I'm using SlimBrowser right now and I really love it. It has a similar feature. I plan to download FF and a few others though so that I can pick and choose depending on what I'm doing. I will, however, not be using Netscape or IE, as I firmly believe that they are both bob. Thanks for your input.
