Sooo, FireFox (lawl, such a cute name) is ze most popular, so it must be the quickest? I just use Internet Explorer, so yeah, basic stuff.

Gabrielacf 05-13-2008 09:44 PM

I.E. starts up quicker to my knowledge while Firefox once loaded runs a hell of a lot faster due to better caching capabilities i guess.
That said the start up on firefox is only about 5 or so seconds longer then I.E.

All in all the popularity of Firefox is probably more due to its add on capabilities and user community.
Any body who wants to and knows how can contribute to the mozilla community if they wish which leads to a large amount of useful tidbits that can be added to firefox for optimal browsing.

For instance i dont even have to go to photobucket to upload images to my account.
The same applies to my blog.

Just a question... no Netscape?
Oh, never mind Netscape ended his support on March. I should replaced Netcape with Flock or Safari.

Fuck Flock. They're a branch off of FireFox which I can't accept. I don't care if they've inbuilt certain social features - I just can't support them.

So? Mine used to take about a minute before I found out what Ctrl+Alt+Del could really do. :p

I always use Internet Explorer... but Mozilla is better than it. A little example: it hasn't dangerous cookies.

I have no problems with cookies using Internet Explorer because I have a good antispyware and it removes them all.

Laser 05-22-2008 07:43 AM

AIN! Who has hit you with the "fucking dense" gun?

Cookies are...somewithng which holds the data of what websites you have visited and helps speed up loading the page

Alcar 05-22-2008 07:51 AM

They actually slow down the page, as it's more data that needs to be exchanged. I believe IE has a maximum limit of 32 (possibly 36) cookies per top-level domain for this very reason. It used to be 18.

Your maintains between 12 - 14 cookies set by the OWF for every registered member.

Alcar...

Nate 05-22-2008 03:59 PM

Considering it practically, it actually speeds up accessing the website, in that I don't need to type in 'Nate' and 'peterscock' to log in.

Bullet Magnet 05-22-2008 05:17 PM

Quick! Before he changes it! AAAAADMIIIIIIIN PRIVILAGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!

Wil 05-31-2008 04:00 AM

There are better things you can do with Peter’s cock than change Hobo’s username. Although that would be fun…

There is another browser, AOL.

Grandi 06-04-2008 10:53 AM

Konqueror, because it comes with KDE. Anyway I answered FF, because I use it on Windows.
