In the future aliens will come to earth and worship Opera.

You try,its easy,make em funny.

No thanks, why be forced to watch ads when I can use Firefox...?

Because choice is a wonderful thing [img]smile.gif[/img]

Still using IE. no reason to change.

Too true, too true ;)

lol a 3rd stupid question and answer thread

I just want one good shot. Sometimes I feel like a dog straining at the end of a leash.

You do realise that there is no choice. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I don't know about opera, but perhaps Broadway musicals. :D

I really was wondering what the hell DA was talking about :D

Except that Firefox is faster and has no popups. ;)

Well then suffer with slowness and popups. See if I care about your 'interesting' sites. ;)

Hang on is this about pop up blockers or what will happen in the future? *scratches head*

It's about pop-ups that will pop up in the future if you don't have a pop-up blocker. :D

erm.. popups. so anyway, dont u hate it when you are about to click on and item and the popup comes up and you click on that instead? then comes the virus..

I use Firefox so I don't have any pop-ups.

Am I imagining this or was IE upgraded in SP2 to have a pop-up blocker?

Hey! off topic,remember,in the future there will be no bendy staws.

Except that Firefox is faster and has no popups. ;) </font>[/QUOTE]Its not noticably faster, and if you get a decent version of IE and you have SP2 then you get everything firefox has and more (except teh extentions and tabs ;) )

Nope your right ;)

In many cases IE actually renders faster than Firefox. Mozilla surprisingly seems to have the edge on many tests I've seen too.

<span style="color: lightblue">And PNG transparency and PNG gamma control and CSS1 & 2 support and XHTML as application/xhtml+xml, and authors who care about it and the ability to run on other OSs than Windows XP and the lack of a need for dozens of anti-BadStuff^TM programs. And Firefox is several orders of magnitude smaller than SP2. Besides security problems and proprietry styles and filters, what does IE have that Firefox and Opera don't? Technology-wise, there's nothing.

And I wasn't talking about the popup blocker - there's an extension to block banner ads.

Well said Lennon, gotta say there isn't much of a reason to keep using IE. Unless you're a masochist.

<span style="color: lightblue">Firefox is slow at complex table markup (the type of stuff that we're not meant to use anymore anyway), and much faster than IE at CSS stuff. Seamonkey might have an edge over Firefox in some tests, in that it was being built from the trunk, while Firefox from 0.6(-ish) to 1.0 was built from a long branch (1.0.x releases are still from that branch). Firefox development is now back on the trunk, and all future builds are expected to be from short branches, not the long chaos that was AVIARY.
So basically, 1.1 (which is due out in the next couple of months, I think) will be faster than 1.0, and should also be faster than the current builds of Seamonkey. Especially since Mozilla.org dropped official support for Seamonkey a little while ago, and there's been very little done sofar to muster up new maintainers (Mozilla.org is still providing Bugzilla, CVS, etc. on their server for Seamonkey, but it is no longer an official Mozilla.org project (hence why the development name is now it's public name).

why do i even bother sometimes? you people are the strangest anywhere,i guess thats why it feels like home.
