      Anyway, FireFox is head over heels better than IE. Welcome to the other side Va Beach VH Fan. I've been using FF for about 4 years now they're about or already have celebrated their 5th anniversary.

      I have a MAC so I don't even have to have IE installed on my machine. :tongue0011:

        I agree with most on here about FF. I've been using it for a few years (after Ford recommended it in a thread) on all my machines and it seems much less shit attaches itself to FF as compared to IE. They also have a cookie approval option that is nice once you get it tuned in (and you'd be surprised to see how many of the little fuckers that want in)....

          I have no problem with IE. Though lately, as in the past couple weeks, AVG has been beating up some sites with their ad-ware.
          AVG caught fail blog with malicious code. AVG just shuts the window down when that happens.
          To put it simply, we need to worry a lot less about how to communicate our actions and much more about what our actions communicate.

            Yeah, but Safari on a Mac is the equivalent of IE on a Windows box. It's the in house proprietary crap. Which is why you use Firefox, right?

              Uh, actually 5 of us.

              I use IE too, but I'll take a look at firefox since everyone here speaks highly of it. My computer crashes,stalls,freezes, and all the other things that piss me off. I don't know if it's my IE, or my 8 year old computer? I also get tons of registry errors.

                First thing you should run is CCleaner (formerly called Crap Cleaner, and that still describes what it does) That will clean out all the old shit in your IE cache as well as the dead stuff in your registry.

                Then install FireFox. And maybe buy some RAM if you can't afford a new PC at the moment (though the prices right now are probably as good as they're gonna get, with the holiday commercialism orgy upon us)

                  Thanks for the link, FORD. I'll definitely check it out.
                  It's probably waaay better than the iolo "System Machanic" software I bought for $9.99, that didn't do crap. :0

                  I took your advice last year on drinking things with real sugar, instead of that HFCS (poison ) that's in most things today. Taco Haven, a little hole in the wall Mexican restaurant down the street knows to get me a Mexican Coke when we go eat there on Sundays. Thanks to you!

                    That's one good way to know if a Mexican restaurant is any good or not.... if you can't get REAL Coke there, chances are, the place ain't that good. Because Mexicans won't drink the corn poison Coke, which means they probably aren't eating there.

                    Of course in Texas, there's probably no shortage of good Mexican food. Or Mexi-Coke.

                    (so see, all the immigration from south of the border really did have a good result after all.... Real Coke. Now if only the idiots in Atlanta would take notice. They already make the real stuff for Passover anyway. Not like it ever shows up in this one-synagogue town.)

                      I just noticed that a locally based, but regional, supermarket chain (Wegmans) is carrying the authentic Mexican Coke as well as Fanta in the Hispanic food section. It's even in glass bottles...

                        Not to brag, but we also have the REAL Dr Pepper in Texas, too...Dublin Dr Pepper made with cane sugar, and it is available in glass bottles as well as 12 oz cans.

                            I been using Firefox since it came out. As it is not a Microshaft product, the script-kiddies have not spent as much time writing exploits for it as for IE. MUCH better than IE.
