    The benefits outweigh the few niggling problems it has, the extensions just blow IE out of the water. IE is a great browser if you don't want to actually do anything useful with it and you like the security of your computer compromised.

    The one problem I've ever had with FireFox and Thunderbird is all my bookmarks and mail disappearing whenever my computer blue-screens.

    Apart from that, I wouldn't go back to IE

    You need the bookmark back up plugin. Sorts it all out by making a backup .html in a subfolder each day.



    Btw, Jonno - I know you're out to get me

    The problem with IE being so popliar is that it is such a hacking target. The fact that it is so closely integrated with most people's OS doesn't help matters.

    I have installed the bbCode plug-in, thanks for that. Kewl.

    Any other suggestions muchly appreciated. I'm not looking for links to pages tho' I can find those. Just suggestions on what you like.
    If you haven't already got it then the extension that allows you to view a page in IE is pretty useful for those pages that don't work with Firefox.

    That's the one. It's useful for sites like Windows Ghey Update which don't allow any browsers but crappy IE on there.*

    Also, for instance, the Jobcentre Plus site only works with IE. Though how I found that out I'll never know...

    i get problems with ff crashing if using google images search and still with websites that don't have the .swf files embedded

    it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.
