So I went to log into hotmail, and waited for 2minutes while it downloaded something from google apparently.



What's that all about?

The G-Box 360 would suck. They'd be putting updates on that like Mc Donalds makes new deals.

But FF has plenty more releases/hotfixes than IE... So at least you know they're fixed in FF

Im stuck using IE anyway. I have this "virtual lab" that I have to use for an online course and the webpage only works in IE. Not FF or even Safari. I plan to make a formal complaint.

You can try Opera, it can be identified as IE, so many "IE only" sites i have come over work well with Opera.

Opera is just pointless as a browser.

Care to state why?

I've used Firefox for 2 years and tried Opera a few months ago, never went back.

Opera is good and so is Firefox, to me they're on the same spectrum, so it's just down to which one you prefer, hardly a pointless browser. I think I carried on with Firefox because my computer was at a state of low performance, so FF was quicker to load and had less 'Not Responding' messages.

That's odd, cause I prefer IE because it loads faster and responds better.

Was that a comment from my other post? (which spoke of iE5)
The last comparison I saw between the two said that FF does have more vulnerabilities than IE, they just fix thtem sooner.
