Here is an alternative; IE with multiple browsing, pop up blocker etc.

Hmm... sort of cool. The only thing I really don't like is I can't use my scroll function on my mouse.

I still dont see what the big fuss is all about.

whats wrong with IE?

It displays web pages fine, java works great with it as does flash and all the other plugs.

it loads in a flash and doesnt abuse my resources.

Whats wrong with it?

I used Netscape with the university connection becuase the geeks set it up to be cool with netscape

then netscape put evil into it's browser, and time warner made it easier to just go with the evil of MS

now I don't care
I delete everything so often that I don't care what else it decides to do

only being able to d/l two files at a time with IE kinda sucks, and I'm sure there's a way to change it, but much like changing to a 'better' browser

I'm just too damn lazy

I hate flash, anyway
stupid ads and shit popping up all the fucking time
what I really want is IE that DOESN'T fucking gimme a whiny attitude every time a site needs to run Active X shit or java shit (the 'page might not work right' where you gotta hit 'ok' to continue! arrrrrrrrrrgh)

I guess if I didn't look up all the warez and porn stuff I wouldn't have such problems, but that's the way the cookie crumbles

when you're lazy, anyway
