Post by: ActiveX on March 05, 2004, 03:57:27 am
I used PhaseOut until I started using a second monitor and it messed that up...

I am using Mozilla, but that wont last long and have used Opera before, but din impress me...

I've used IE and Netscape, and I myself have been more than pleased with IE my friend. Then my page is Yahoo, but some people, especially the Mexicans for some reason, prefer Google. I use Yahoo because I get the world at a glance before I move on to Taldren or other sites like Scottrade. I also like yahoo because my e-mail is there, and also 1 hr to 30 minutes before the market opens you get the LATEST news on stocks and which ones are hot. Is how I made Leda over 5 dollars a share on ELAB when the bell rang for opening that day (the company got FDA approval to manufacture Wellbutrin, a popular anti-depressant and smoking cessation drug, that drug market is worth billions worldwide).

I really like Mozilla Firefox 0.8. It is much better than IE, netscape or even Mozilla.

Scott, they have versions for Solaris too.

Agreed, Firefox shows promise.

For Mac:
1) Safari (fast, has tabs)
2) OmniWeb (beta 3 of v5 shows promise)
3) Firefox
4) IE (only when needed to access some MS pushed "WWW standard")

I agree with the IE comment Death. I only use it for the Windows update feature.
