IE is merely the frontend for Microsoft's HTML renderer/web libraries, which load at windows startup into memory. So, really, IE is just preloading itself with Windows, at the expense of memory. If you haven't tried an optimized Firefox build, now would be a good time to start.

firefox 99% of the time. the only time i use explorer is when its a site where i CAN'T use firefox.

tranza 06-01-2005 01:50 PM

How about: "Firefox only!"?

flirty 06-01-2005 01:50 PM

Peaches 06-01-2005 01:51 PM

Both, I check to make sure everything works in both IE and FireFox.. when I am surfing though.. it's FireFox.. I love my tabs :)

Don/Atlas 06-01-2005 01:59 PM

Every time I clicked on my favorites while using firefox my browser locked up and I'd have to reboot. use IE only now.

primazo 06-01-2005 02:00 PM

Using FF half the time but pages do load slower, now I have read the new Netscape uses the same engine and performs better then FF.
Gone give Netscape a try soon.

Doctor Dre 06-01-2005 02:11 PM

firefox all the way baby

nico-t 06-01-2005 02:16 PM

both equally :)
in combination with roboform IE works better

Type in about:config in the address bar and change these settings by right-clicking on them:

browser.turbo.enabled = true
nglayout.initialpaint.delay = 100

spideriux 06-01-2005 02:40 PM

only Firefox

webgurl 06-01-2005 02:41 PM

hmmm i should try out that fox but using IE

bdld 06-01-2005 02:45 PM

i use both, i prefer firefox only because of the tabbed browsing feature. i hear the next IE will come out with the same feature so i'll see if i switch back.

KRL 06-01-2005 02:47 PM

Firefox is my favorite.

okdesign 06-01-2005 03:24 PM

Firefox Only! :)

Dalai lama 06-01-2005 03:37 PM

I like to switch around a bit and some of the online services I use dont support FF or Opera for instance...

FissPunny 06-01-2005 03:51 PM

I'm interested to see how IE 7 will turn out. Apparently it has such great new features as "tabbed browsing" ;)

swedguy 06-01-2005 04:26 PM

Only thing I use IE for is reviews :)

woj 06-01-2005 04:29 PM

firefox :thumbsup

TheSwed 06-01-2005 04:33 PM

IE :thumbsup

suesheboy 06-01-2005 04:36 PM

Wow!

A lot of FF lovers here too.

fischi 06-01-2005 04:45 PM

FF 99% Safari 1%

sniperwolf 06-01-2005 04:55 PM

firefox is hot!

Babagirls 06-01-2005 04:57 PM

i use explorer alot more for building shit, but i surf and do my own stuff on Firefox........i probably should have picked the "Both" option instead of the IE one LOL

Jimmy Rock 06-01-2005 05:33 PM

I oprefer FoxFire :) and we did have this name before FireFox...

Elli 06-01-2005 05:34 PM

I installed Avant on my laptop and am actually pretty impressed. It's on the IE engine, so it supports Flash and all that flawlessly, but it has tabs and lots of other handy FF features. I still use FireFox on my main machine, though.
