Firefox is the best of a bad bunch in this respect (by quite some margin I might add), it's free, cross platform, and relatively secure. | SJD (8332) | ||

Good point, but Firefox and Opera still make up less than 10% or so of the browser market. |

| 362917 | 2005-06-15 23:50:00 | Most stats would suggest higher than that methinks, and this (www.w3schools.com) would suggest the trend is towards IE alternatives. | SJD (8332) | ||
| 362918 | 2005-06-16 01:23:00 | SJD, I like the quotes at the bottom of that page: "The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple." "First get your facts; then you can distort them at your leisure." "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damn lies, and statistics." |

| 362921 | 2005-06-17 06:37:00 | agreed with chill, look at Apache and MySQL for example | Edward (31) | ||

| 362923 | 2005-06-19 09:44:00 | So here I am in Firefox. Seems a pale imitation of Opera :) This right click then left click to get a tab is silly. The options seem fairly limited too. I suppose it satisfys undemanding people. :cool: | Winston001 (3612) | ||
