I started with I.E and it is horrible. I went to Firefox beta it was crashing, I changed to F.F beta mine and it was doing well til it just went nuts on me. Now I use Google Chrome, it isn't the best but I say it's still 80% better than what's out there.
Gave up......

Booo to Google Chrome. THey focus on being fast. Firefox is the browser that you can personalize to your perfect specification. My firefox hasn't been a problem. But do tell me what problems you have been encountering. I am curious to know what.
Um......... Jim.......
Two of us have asked you what sort of troubles you are having and you didn't reply. Considering the is your thread I thought it would be fitting if you would.

Well, I liked it for awhile but lately OTZ has been coming up in html instead of straight text. It also seemed slower than the IE8. I also tried and dumped chrome, just didn't like it's layout or tools. I may try Mozilla again but not right away....I do use Thunderbird for my email now. I also like the spellcheck in Firefox....

I've not had problems with OTz but I have had quite a few issues with Facebook- similar ones with the page coming up in just text with no styles or pictures or just empty bits on the page. That could be just Facebook but I'm seeing how I go with Chrome which I don't mind and have used before.
IE8 is totally knackered on my system which is a fresh Windows 7 install. If I try to launch it, it appears and vanishes instantly but is still running in task manager. Updates for IE8 from windows update haven't sorted this.

As I understand it the last update of Firefox has caused a lot of problems ( ??? ) for some folks and many of them have gone back to the most recent ver previous to it. That's why I haven't updated FF yet. I will when it's all sorted out.
I didn't realise this. Firefox is on auto update on mine and I just assumed it would be great each time as it has been in the past. I'll keep a closer eye on what people say about it being sorted out and then maybe try again.
I always play that sort of thing with a lot of caution. I never let anything auto-update except for my isp's security system. Other than that I trust nothing to chance.

They fixed it! Firefox 3.6 b4 fixes something like 160 problems they had previously. I installed it and it is working like old times...Perfect.....
You are a firefox fan like me and therefore, you just got on my list of Top 10 fav people.

Cool. Well, I loved it then they threw a turd in the punch bowl with a bad build which they have now fixed.
I remember it used to be easy to design a site and make it work and the few browsers that existed would render the same. now they all wanna be unique.
So when you design a site you have to test it in
IE, Firefox, Safari, Chrome, Opera

Original pic was not that HUGE. Someone thought stretching it and making it look grainier than it already was is a smart thing to do.

I don't know what the hell happened. It just got hard when I was cleaning it.
