1331730 2013-03-07 04:42:00 In IE10 it looks like this with the first post on each page with scroll bars. In FF which this is posted from it looks ok. The reason I posted this from FF is because IE10 won't let me post attachments. Comes up with the message "A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen."

:) Yep, posted that just the other day, as well as a while ago when W8/IE10 was just out ( this is even before the RTM) this site/The uploader cant handle IE10. Other than that one thing, IE10 works fine. BTW this is the desktop version, not the app version.

Why change to FF when its the site causing a problem (as in not keeping up with new technology) no other sites i go to have problems with IE10. As time goes on it will only get worse.
Dont use FF unless I have to as often some add ins dont work with every new version or something else goes wrong. Personally I fine IE10 faster than FF anyway.

IE xx is fine if you want to visit microsoft or yahoo. It should be banned (with explosions) everywhere else for blatant moppery.

1331734 2013-03-07 05:08:00 Bollocks - we have IE 10 on all the PC's here apart from one, and if you actually time it, FF is slower by 2 seconds to open the same than IE. wainuitech (129)

Yes you are right. IE10 is my main browser and use FF if something doesn't go right which is with this forum. Have no problems with IE10 on other forums I visit. For a computer tech and help site I find it appalling that browsers don't work properly here.

Nothing to prove really, any PC we have here, if you open any page in IE10 ( which is what this is about) then open the same page, same PC within a few seconds its slower in FF. No brainer really and its slower enough to actually time it.

Just did a test here -- main Page of Press f1 - click on either forum, Chat or Pressf1, count

In IE Click 1,2 = Page fully opened.
In FF Click 1,2,3,4 = Page opens

If I looked at my watch at the same time each number is 1 second.

Edited - Relating to Speed heres a test result www.neowin.net Notice whats the fastest in Windows, FF is sitting third ;)

1331738 2013-03-07 08:06:00 That's amazing, especially considering that FF doesn't even have to pause to make the operator throw up, which IE does without fail. ;) R2x1 (4628)
1331739 2013-03-07 08:46:00 Well FF makes me throw up and that's only thinking of using it.

So far every time they do an "improvement" most of the addins I used to use now don't work. Sorry but wont use a slower browser unless I have to.
