I don’t really use Firefox

written by John Chow on December 1, 2005

Profit from binary options

I’ve been fooling around with the themes available for WordPress. The choices are quite overwhelming. Right now I’ve settle on the Firefox theme. While I do have Firefox on my computer I don’t really use it. For me Internet Explorer is still my default browser. Don’t get me wrong, I like Firefox but I just prefer IE. I think people get too bent out of shape with some of their MS bashing.

Face it, IE is the #1 browser on the web and nothing is going to change that anytime soon. However, Firefox has a much better logo. The fox looks good. :)

I am in the same boat as you. I used to use Firefox all of the time, but now I find myself using IE7. The features seem to be decent for a "stock" browser. The big issuse with IE is the memory usage, Yeah Firefox used to use alot of memory but with FF 2.0 most of the problems have been solved. I'm all for freeware but I think just maybe Micro$oft has Mozilla beat.

I just don't get it. What on IE makes you stick with it? Some years ago, I'd say one reason was websites compatibility, but nowadays I don't know about even one public website that just doesn't work with ff..

Help me please...
I just installed Firefox 2.0, and all of a sudden, my username/password isn't being inserted in the signon window (it always was before). I tried the usual suspects--I did not mistakenly tell FF not to remember the password for this site; and I also tried the remember password bookmarklet, but all to no avail--FF will not ask me to remember this password. What do I need to do to get around this?

It really sucks when going to a site that obviously has not considered Firefox. I just like the tabbed browsing.

Firefox is great when it's used as a standalone browser. But in the ERP space, Internet Explorer is the only real choice for cross functionality when it comes to mission critical processes.

You may like Firefox and I like it too but I still feel more comfortable with IE. I do find that over 30% of visitors to The TechZone are Firefox users so that's why I run it as well. Have to make sure the site looks good for Firefox users.
