512049 2007-01-04 20:40:00 Opera 98% of the time. But it still doesn't work with all sites. Like tab.co.nz :)

So then it's ff 2.0

And I have to agree with the person who admitted to liking IE7. It looks good (better than the dreary FF default and yeah I know you can get endless skins) and works well enough - but I just don't want all the activex baggage for general browsing so it's for updates/online virus scans only.

Installed Maxthon too, but it doesn't offer anything extra for me.

Well of course it loads. If you actually want to USE the site to place bets or view odds conveniently rather than observe the front page, opera isn't the browser you use. If all the javascript inside works for you, consider yourself special & tell opera how you did it.

512052 2007-01-06 11:40:00 I use Firefox on Linux. It eats memory and hangs for up to a minute when plugins such as Java or Flash are opened but it does everything I want. Firefox is also the most "moddable" of the main IE/FF/Opera browsers - most modifications can be done through Javascript and if you need to do more the source code is always there for the compiled components ;) . The extensions system is Firefox's #1 selling point. TGoddard (7263)
