Mozilla Vs Internet Explorer!!

sorry gonaads...of all the browsers I have tried, mozilla is clearly the slowest and most crude...a beginners effort.

now, pheonix, which is based of course on mozilla...there is a very nice browser...and if it could load pages that programmers make mistakes on, I might consider this as an altenative

sadly, even pheonix can not do what ie accomplishes so easily

and sadly again, any second party browser uses ram that does not need to be used, since ie is running regardless.

I like how fast my programs load when no other browser is running

I hate how my programs load when I have more then one browser loading

so, for me, and the speed of the internet, and the speed of my box, this is really a no brainer

but, it's what you like or are used to that in the end is the fastes utility for your individual preferance.

those of you that know and enjoy mozilla, clearly, mozilla is the best choice far and away

I suggest you give pheonix a try though, as it is mozilla for your familiarity, but it is clearly tons faster then mozilla in loading pages...almost as fast as opera and ie as a matter of fact...maybe even equal...mozilla is not even close in these regards

Personally, I prefer Mozilla. In fact, I'm using it to post right now!
You may prefer IE, but it depends what you've used more. I had no problem converting, (about 25 minutes) but IE may work better on some pages. That's just my opinion.

I definately have issues


I am not doon to good lately...had to take a full time job, other stuff

how u doon?

IE doesn't really suck ... it's just too basic. (and non-compliant of course )
It's just not even half as functional as Mozilla/Phoenix without third-party add-ons.

sorry, this point does not hold,...any other browser is a huge...heeeuuuugeeeee add on.

much rather use the very small add ons fo whatever you think ie needs...there are opera add ons, pheonix add ons...everything, and all of these "add ons" is mucvh much smaller then any one browser "add on"

less space, uses no resourses at all...\


talk about a waste of an add on...that would be a useless, crude browsers, that cannot even make bad programming look good

(this is fun...ms is gonna send me tons of stuff for all tis free advertisement))

 

[NetRyder]

So what you're saying is that you use IE just because it's there and it's memory-resident always?

What if Windows didn't include IE as a mandatory component. What would you use then?

 

[gonaads]

Very good question. Soooo Dealer if you had XP with no Browser what would you choose. Now remember that this is a impartial answer you need to give. And IE would not be resident at all.
