I'm sorry but IE uses a lot more than that even if you don't use it. >And most sites tend to look slightly better in IE That is probably more to do with the fact of there being so many crappy web devs writting crappy code. |

You think thats cool, get the drag and drop timmie mentioned, not only can you drag a link into a new tab, but select some words drag them into a google search. |

| 284764 | 2004-10-27 20:48:00 | I started with IE, like most people, then tried Opera and never changed. Tried Firefox for a while but just preferred Opera. Apart from the technicalities and vulnerabilities I think it comes down to being a bit like the car you drive. You just like the look or feel of it regardless of the specifications. I doubt that point made way at the top about "Firefox is not open to Spyware" though. I wouldn't assume any browser is bullet proof. "D |
