Best Internet Browser?

**Kellicros** · February 6th, 2002

well, I know opera is fast but I have some problem with it on NGEMU, and some website doen'st show up right. I am using IE6 now, never use netscape...

You forgot a very famous one: Mozilla (I voted for it => other)

And...Where have you got all that Naruto-Avatars from?

gerbilcannon · February 6th, 2002

I use mozilla at work, it is definitely a lot more stable than ye olde netscape and ie (5.5, it is a mac I use at work)

Jonys · February 6th, 2002

internet explorer is the faster one.....the most secure is netscape...but i think IE dosent'work so well...(at least for me) in the forums...

JAZ · February 6th, 2002

Yeah mozilla is cool except for a few niggles I have with it ie it wont accsess my hotmail account for some reason and I cant get it to sort my favourites by name (anyone got any ideas why).
If I could sort those problems I'd use it all the time.

I had heard of Mozilla but I never use it, yes I forgot 'bout it...
I am downloading it right now.

I got my Naruto-avatars from google, yes I search for it forgot the url...

Been using Mozilla for a while now. Gets better with each release. The latest version has finally got rid of the obvious bugs that were affecting this board, ie slow posting and repeated online/offline statuses.

That said there is a new bug concerning WB on the classic skin (although that's probably more stardocks fault)

**Demigod** · February 7th, 2002

I use good ol' IE. It does its job fine, no real reason to get anything else.

**Shiori** · February 7th, 2002

I use IE too... been using them since the day I discovered the internet (1997

)

**Kellicros** · February 7th, 2002

so IE is the best afterall...?

gerbilcannon · February 7th, 2002

If you are using the comments and poll in here to decide which is the best you have most definitely come to the wrong place. I doubt that anyone here has taken a serious study of all the browsers listed here and done any comparisons and tests. This is more or less just an opinion poll about which browser do you prefer to use. It is just mislabled a bit, my opinion.

so far (although its ulnerable, and a bughouse but) IE seems to be everyone's fav. - or is it because of M$ propaganda? - well, i think it is, but it calculates Tables better than its competitors (which is important, although the standard of HTML 4.0 already brings us the clear definitions on using the codes, but M$ made their own codes, and most sites use it - so whos to blame?

IE, Opera, then the rest of the gang.

DragonSoull · February 7th, 2002

I really like Opera 6 but IE is more compatible every site works fine so i must use it

Nezzar · February 8th, 2002

Mozilla actually displayed every page I know fine, too.

**Ryos** · February 8th, 2002

Mozilla displays most pages fine now, and the other benefits of the browser easily outweigh any minute increases in speed you might find in other browsers.

IE has bad habit to crash...

What can you expect from Microsoft?

I never tried Mozilla, but after so many compliments, I think I'm gonna try it.

IE 4.0 used to crash all the time on my system, but from v5.0 and up it's been pretty stable. IE hardly ever crashes on me now. The earlier MS products sucked (IE 4, DirectX 5, Windows 9x

) but their more recent versions are pretty good (IE 6, DirectX 8, Windows XP)
