Heh, you guys didnt know about this exploit? It was found a long time ago, I actually messed up my internet explorer when I was trying to tweak my computer. Heh who knew you could accidenta lly stumble across this stuff without actually knowing what you did. As far as firefox is concerned I cant stand the browser look and the way it downloads is even worse, the whole browser should be sent to the recycle bin if you think of using firefox, all you really need is to have a secure computer and internet explorer is just as safe as almost any other browser. But, whatever makes you happy go with it.

I don't think he means the actual browsing speed, but rather how quickly the client loads. I have heard a few people saying that Firefox can take a bit longer in that regard sometimes, although I suspect it would depend on the machine in question.

I know there are plenty of good reasons to use Firefox, but it just irritates me so much. icon_sweatdrop.gif

Maybe I should look around at some other browsers, or try to find add-on to give Firefox a more IE-ish interface.

firefox is just IE on High Security Mode except it doesn't have the option of loosening the security a little bit so you can do more stuff. or at least that's what i heard.
