Web browsers..
alright, so i got a new computer just about a year ago, and i thought this time around, i'd try something new. it has vista and all that jazz, and i've been using Opera.
this might be a stupid question, but should i stay with opera, or should i switch back to firefox or something else? basically, i'm just wondering if there's anything better. |
Re: Web browsers..
I would say try oyt Google Chrome it is a bit different, but has some nice qualities.
Than go back to FireFox. And welcome back again. :p |
Re: Web browsers..
I still like Safari over Firefox but it's probably just because I've been using of longer.
Not sure if the Safari for PC is as good. |

Google CHRRRRROMMMMMMMMEEE
Fantastic web browser. Can't live without it on PC. Plus it uses a lot less resources than anything else. For Mac, Camino, hands down. It's based on Firefox code, but it uses OSX-native rendering engine Cocoa, and pages load as fast as possible. Even Chrome can't shake a rendering stick to it. |
Re: Web browsers..
Well, there are three main categories for what makes a web browser good.
1. Security - I'd personally say Firefox with extensions (Safari lacks phishing protection). 2. Speed/Accuracy - Depends. The beta versions of Minefield (next gen Firefox)/Chrome/Safari are very similar. But current builds Chrome/Safari. 3. Functionality - Firefox hands down. The plug in support makes it the undeniable champ. So it just depends on what matters to you most. Opera comes as a close runner up in all three categories but it's not really the best in any of them. |
Re: Web browsers..
well, i could definitely use the security.
my last computer went to shit because the lack thereof, and it'd be fantastic for pages to load faster. i haven't really heard anything about this Google Chrome, someone enlighten me? |

It's still in beta at the moment, and doesn't yet have a Mac or Linux build. |
Re: Web browsers..
oh, so i'm guessing because of all the talk with Chrome and Mac, that it's not compatible with windows?
or am i just being naive and not reading everyone's reply and understanding to the fullest? |

All you windows users might want to check out Lunascape which handles all three major web rendering engines — Firefox’s Gecko, Internet Explorer’s Trident and WebKit (which is used by Safari and Chrome).

Re: Web browsers..
hey umm...is anybody else having problem with firefox lately? it's having trouble saving cookies even though the options are enabled and haven't been changed...ever.
This started a few days ago or so and it affects things like passwords and such, like on GT the "remember me" box doesn't do anything for me because i have to login again when i leave and come back. anybody else experiencing this issue? |
