Ark, have I mentioned that you win? For seriously. Anime, Mozilla seems to have a memory issue with forums, it'll usually show the forum as it was when you last visited and you have to refresh it a lot. I've gotten used to it, but I used to use IE for forums and Mozilla for everything else. I got annoyed with IE and decided to just use Mozilla despite the refreshing, and it's not so bad. The clock on the top of the page helps a lot. Though I have issues modifying posts, and I usually don't even bother trying anymore, I just open IE for that.

Idril, that's why I usually use IE for forums, even when I'm worried about my computer getting viruses. I got sick and tired of not being able to edit my own posts and having to ask someone else to do it for me.

I use the old IE, though I really wouldn't mind having a tabbed browser.....*glances at 9 IE windows....*

I got sick and tired of not being able to edit my own posts and having to ask someone else to do it for me. Actually, that's computer-specific/dependent on settings and tweaks. I have no such problem, Firefox 2 is a dream. All you need to do is refresh proboards pages to make sure their up to date. That's just because proboards software is annoying like that. I chose to just go with Aol... its litterally impossible to get a virus through it. Plus its quick, and quads my internet speed. Vastly untrue. AOL's antiviral scanning is ridiculously under-par, at least in the opinions of most peopl I know in RL, and in my own. Also, AOL wastes way to much ram to be useful.

I had problems with it in ConForums too, though. But it really is 100% worth it to refresh the browser when you need to. It's really love, imho. There shouldn't be an option of any other browser Anybody tried Flock? It's based on the base code (or whatever) of Firefox, but it's got a lot of tools for Photobucket (a mass upload thing, much love), Flickr and del.icio.us. I only used it a few times so far, and it seems like it chews up bit of ram, I certainly won't be switching from Firefox, but the goodies are fun

I keep forgetting that I have Firefox on here. I've used CrazyBrowser for so long that I automatically open it whenever I want to go anywhere. I'm just gonna have to train myself to use Firefox more. I do love all the extras it has.

I downloaded firefox and hated it. Gah. How ugly. I don't mind having 9 browsers open- it's easier for me that way. Also, I'm sorry I didn't create an other category in the poll. I usually do.
