What browser do you use?

[jdig]

Just wondering what browsers people are using on this site.

I used to use IE (Internet explore) untill I realized Im not a good spealer and needed a spell check. Mozzilla Firefox has a automatic spell check and underlines a misspelled word and you can right click to get the correct spelling. This makes me look smerter and I feel gooder about myself.

BUT..... Mozilla freezes on me in this site sometimes.... anyone else having this same issue?

filehippo.com has a free download for the firefox (mozilla) if anyone wants to know.

I use Mozilla Firefox and have never had a problem -- much smoother and easier to use than Internet Explorer.

I've never had problems with mozilla and all the sudden it freezes when I start typing. Im a multi tasker and have usually have about 5 to 10 programs running at the same time, so maybe it's time to do a good clean. Thanks spare!

I'm all over the map. I enjoy using Opera because I'm all about the "mouse gestures"...pushing buttons is for the less-evolved :p

As for the freezing...do you have any other plugins installed? Were they all "Mozilla Approved" plugins? Could be having a plugin conflict as well.

Fire up Firefox from "Start | Run" using firefox -safe-mode or under the Mozilla Firefox Start Menu folder there should be a "Firefox (Safe Mode)" shortcut. Once you start it up, click the checkbox to disable all plugins. Use it this way for a while and see if MFC is still freezing up on you. If it doesn't, then you know the issue is with one of your plugins.

Using MF in safe mode and see if it freezes? Or dissabling all the plug ins in safe mode with accomplish this?


I never have problems while running anything in safe mode even without dissabling the plug ins.... Really, this issue isn't a big deal. I think I might just need to get used to the browser.

One problem... when Im typing right here... and I mispell a word and hit my back space to delete it... all the sudden its like Im hitting the back button on the top of my screen and go back like 5 pages! LMAO almost like my courser isn't staying here. Wierd!

I do think I have to much running. I have a pretty bad ass computer... but having 10 programs running at the same time with constant live feeds and updates constantly through half of them.... kind of get some glitches. Let alone, I must have about 3000 pics with 5-8 mgbytes on each pic.... hundreds of folders with hundreds of files in every one.... Im on a network and keep most of that stuff on the network drives... but Im sure all the crap doesn't help.

FOR YOUR INFO....
I went to my friendly free download site filehippo.com and downloaded a CCleaner. It's fast and pretty easy. Cleaned my entire computer with one button in about 2 minutes!!! PLUS for all the sneaky people here.... It cleans up your visited web pages... so yoru hubby or wife don't know how much time you REALLY spend here.

No problems yet!!! Ill keep everyone posted.
Thanks everyone for all your help!!!


GO ROCKIES!!!!
