If you want Firefox, get it from the source (http://www.mozilla.com ), not
from a leech.

Firefox 2 is the lastest release contains antiphising... Firefox has
always been more zippier than Exploder from way back, you'll find
Thunderbird E-mailer just as good.

That hasn't been my experience.
Do a test.... use exploder for ten minutes and see how many cookies you
get.. and then try Firefox without deleting them .... I could be on
Explorer ten minutes and get over 120 cookies... be on Firefox all day
and just get a dozen or so.

I've used Firefox and IE and still prefer IE. I never get any cookies as I have them disabled except for sites that I
regularily visit that require them.
Same with Outlook send a E-mail and check the trash.... you'll be
amazed, a big difference in 'bottle necking'.

What does sending mail have to do with trash?
 
Per Fuzzy Logic:
I've used Firefox and IE and still prefer IE.

I tried FireFox awhile ago and went back to IE because I thought it was slower
and I didn't care for the way it handled Favorites (sealing them up in to it's
own little XML file instead of making them available to the Windows desktop like
IE does).

Just yesterday, I was complaining in another NG about some particularly
intrusive flashing ads on a site that I pay money to access.

Somebody suggested FireFox plus an add-in called "AddBlock".

Wow!... dunno how they do it, but that sucker just strips away *all* the
advertising on web pages.

For my money, this is an authentic "Killer" feature.

Two days ago I was whining about huge flashing images on this web page.
Now I'm seeing *all* web pages without even the minimal advertising that
I used to just happily ignore except for clicking on the occasional
subject of interest.

Bottom line for advertisers: they've lost one audience member - permanently -
both the "good" advertisers and the abusive ones.

If somebody figures out to apply AddBlock's functionality to IE and it catches
on, I think there's going to be a shakeout in the online advertising world -
something where the intrusiveness of ads gets cut back drastically... if only to
protect the "good" advertisers.
 
Technically that wasn't spam. Spam is defined as excessive multiple
postings.


You have to look at the source. It (that thing calling itself Bob I)
thinks that a joke post telling how to get high speed Internet by
flushing something down the toilet was real. So I wouldn't embrace
anything it says or posts as offering any resemblance of accuracy much
less being subject to any pre-thought usually associated with and
offered by any living creature with intelligence above plant life.

Regards,
Stan.
