Why does internet explorer run so much smoother than FF

Firefox seems slower for me, but I use it anyway for the tabbed browsing and adblock. I hope they speed it up a bit :)

It seems like firefox connects back to the site when you click the back button, i'm not sure why tho as it doesn't update any information :huh:
IE just loads the last page right from the cache.

use maxthon. it pwns firefox

For the timid or lazy it works perfectly.

That said, I've just switched from FF to Opera and it is significantly faster than any other browser I've tried.
Still getting a grip on the config settings, but I think Opera is a keeper.

I think my only complaint is I cant use Windizupdate with Opera and wish I could import my bookmarks from Firefox .


Has anyone tryed the built in Opera mail client ?
I'll continue to try both but yeppers Opera is faster and only crash I'v had was the windizupdate site .

You can import bookmarks. When in in firefox, export them to a .htm file and import that in Opera

Thanks Mivaro , you mean "export " them to a html file ? I'll try after work .


Two clicks I'm done ,thanks again I never would of thought of that . :) Even got my search engines from FF. :01:

I've been using Opera recently and will probably stay with that.

I'm waiting for the newest IE7 beta to try that.

FF is not worth the time and many of features including tabbed browsing, I've had with add-ons to IE6.

I think Opera going free now (without ads) will overtake FF.

Has anyone tryed fasterfox ? Found it on KLT .

Opera's D/L manager bites by the way . :dry:

Is Opera any good?
