What a distasteful question?! Don't you mention that impetuous browser again, you hear.
I only like it for the more interesting backgrounds and Fire.fm
The movie was okay, nothing great. As for the software, don't use it.
Um, dislike it. If I were inclined to like it, I would still dislike it.
it doesnt bog my computer down like Internet Explorer (which I hate)- it is a lot faster pulling things up, as well
Interesting. It DOES bog my computer, and IE doesn't (and I actually like IE). Have tried it 3 major times on 3 different computers, same result every shot out of the gate.
Am thinking it doesn't like ME.
I have been a Firefox nut since 2004. I am also fanatical about open-source operating systems, all of which include the fox. I will continue using Firefox as long as it is supported. Internet Explorer is full of hidden crap, that MS put in to make them more profit. Firefox is much more valuable to the end user. IE was just an attempt to make deals with advertisers and such, and to get the cash users were giving to Netscape, before MS included IE. Firefox is the revenge of Netscape!
Although I use Firefox, I've started using Opera a lot more. Firefox crashes all the time and freezes often.
Never had a crash or freeze-- but this is with Mac.
yea I agree with you, but I think opera is a little better than firefox
I've used Firefox since it's release. I find that I use that the most, and then I use Safari followed by Chrome...
I tried Opera a while back, and it made a mess of my computer, so I haven't used it since...Maybe it's time to try it again...
I refuse to use IE...Nothing but a compiled load of crap in my opinion, as useless as that is...LOL
I've used Firefox for about 4 months now, and I think it's great. I've been getting a lot of blue screen lately, which I think is due to my mobile broadband driver,and I love the way Firefox saves all my stuff and puts me back where I was.
I also love the way it finds my most often used web-sites, ie just putting the letter G into the url bar offers me google.
I love the morning coffee add-on that brings up my most used pages every time I boot up.
I love the way it points to my web mail, without me having to go looking.
I don't like the way all my saved web sites get lost and turn up under 'history ~> unsorted bookmarks' but I'm sure I've probably set something up wrongly, not them.
For some reason, I can no longer use videos on my hubs while using FireFox and have to switch to another browzer. But, then, I come back.
I got an updated version the other day and they said the advantage of the update was so videos could be played on Firefox which I thought strange at the time as I never had any problem playing them.
Have you got this update or new version or whatever it was? Might solve your problem.
I never had problems in the past, this a new wrinkle. I don't even know if I have the new version. I am such a technodummy.
IE8 and IE in general is nothing compared to Firefox , who doesnt love it
LO Earnest.
If you scratch Flock, you'll find firefox underneath.
I use firefox. It has the best range of addons, and you can customise it to suit your needs.
I agree Eric, I have just brought a new laptop with IE installed, will Firefox load up OK on that?
Hey Eric and Peter, I knew Flock was driven by firefox and it was a factor in choosing it. I love the sidebar auto sign-ons!
Trouble is it crapped itself 2 weeks ago, so I am running Firefox as we speak.
Peter that laptop is weeks old, outdated mate!
I have not tried it for some time, perhaps I will.
History shows again and again
How nature points up the folly of men
Mozilla!
I've never liked it. It's too slow. I prefer browsers that are JUST browsers like Google Chrome or Opera.
I like Firefox . because of it's speed is better than IE and different kinds of addons.
Firefox is useful for the SEOquake plugin to get page rank of the sites you will be up against if you write a hub for a particular keyword, otherwise I reckon it is too cumbersome and slow compared to Google Chrome.
Firefox is good but I switched to Google Chrome.
I<3 it. I really LIKE it. It's super quick, customizable.
Its also great for hubpages for me.

Is Google Chrome, or Firefox, better than Internet Explorer?I'm wondering if I'm going to run into problems with these. Has anyone compared these search engines? Which is the best one to use with Windows 7 ?

For anyone who upgraded to Windows 8.1, Internet Explorer 11 came with it and you may have noticed that you can enter links in your hubs through this browser.It still works in Firefox 25, but just a heads up!
by Susan Zutautas 12 years ago
Just curious what browser do you use?I have been using Internet Explorer and just recently have had problems with it. I did a virus scan, a spyware scan, and nothing seemed to work. I could only use IE in add ons disabled mode. At sometime I had downloaded google chrome. Tried it today and it...

Hi everyone,I hate to even ask at this point, but will the people who were having problems with the new photo capsule in Internet Explorer see if the problems have gone away? We just did an update to the site and are crossing our fingers hoping that we've solved the problem this time.Thanks.

I have used all of these and found firefox good, but not as chrome, IE is losing its position. One problem I faced with chrome is, it crashes after sometime...Which one is best ?
by x 11 years ago
For the record, I am pro-Firefox."It doesn’t look good for Firefox: Almost every month for the last three years, Firefox has lost ground to Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Safari. For most of 2009 the trend was fairly straight as it fended off Chrome and nibbled away at IE, but between 2010 and...
