| 60240 | 2002-07-06 09:16:00 | Yes JM, quite true, I wasn't condoning cracked versions, sorry if it came out that way :8} Just wondering whether there was an Ad-Free version available. Since my earlier post I have looked on the Opera site see that there isn't :( - maybe one day they will make it Ad-Free so it becomes a force to be reckoned with, I quite like it but can't justify USD 39.00. Thanks J |

| 60241 | 2002-07-06 09:26:00 | Under Windows I used Opera for ages. Its a great browser. But now I prefer Mozilla - Its standards based not like IE. IE is Microsofts interpretation of what HTML should be like (Don't you just hate those sites "Designed for IE!" :-/) Anyway, before I go babbling on, Mozilla might be a bit slow at loading (Itself, not rendering pages) but no ads, and best of all, it has tabs! | segfault (655) | ||
| 60242 | 2002-07-06 10:38:00 | I also recommend CrazyBrowser (http://www.crazybrowser.com) which is a free front end for IE. So all pages should display the same as in IE. The major bonus is that it allows browser tabs and popup removal. |

| 60243 | 2002-07-06 11:01:00 | Just realised something with Opera. There is a free LEGAL way to not remove but hide the advert. Opera has a built in Full Screen mode. Just hit F11 when inside a browser window. ;) |

| 60244 | 2002-07-06 12:06:00 | Thanxs JM havn't got around to reading all the help files yet :D F11 is the answer, but y put on ads if there is a way round them.?:| cheers merlin-nz ;-) |

| 60245 | 2002-07-06 12:46:00 | well full screen can be annoying with the lack of buttons and the like. | -=JM=- (16) | ||
| 60246 | 2002-07-06 13:19:00 | Merlin From one grandad to another...go for Opera.....it is stable..fast and very easy on the eye. I have had it for about a month now and find it faultless (yep I know that sounds strong..but it really is). I also run Eudora-sponsored version and find that heaps better than Outlook Express or Microsoft Outlook. Smurf |

| 60248 | 2002-07-07 05:55:00 | Thought I'd add my bit, I got rid of IE around version 5, it just stuffed up so much I used 98lite(free version) to take it out of the system.This gave an appreciable boost to the system speed. Since then I have settled on Opera as my browser which is pretty quick as well. As for ads, I use Agnitum Outpost Firewall which does the job pretty well. | Rod ger (316) | ||
