Default Opera and Windows media Player


Can anyone please tell me why Opera Explorer cannot see where my WMPlayer
is? I am getting so ****ed off with Opera that I think MSIE is probably
better and a bit faster too.

You may have to go into the options and under Programs set the file
types to that Opera executes Media Player for that file type.

Hi Paul!



maybe it´s also a kind of religion, going with surf-programmes.

I dare to say IE is very fast (5 or 6). But there are also some
disadvantages.... to be fair!

K-Meleon is pretty fast! And Netscape 8.1 looks capable (and is).



Best Regards,

Daniel Mandic

P.S.: TAB-Browsing... what´s that??? Yuck.

why the hell IE ALWAYS stops active pages?
How can I tell it that the page is sure because it's produced by myself?
Does M$oft mean that I can't trust of my self?

I would go with Firefox. Netscape 8 is just a rebadged version of
Firefox.

Tabbed Browsing.

To be honest, I don´t surf very much today, so my experience about IE
troubles are rare. But I could not go w/o Netscape or K-Meleon, bez of
the text-magnifier utility, whereas Netscape is my favourite.

Maybe IE7 or SP3 for IE6 will get outfitted with a better
text-magnifier.
