Go to Roboform page

Hi I found most of the browsers on the roboform web site. It tells you on the browser link which ones it works with and which not. That is where i found all the names of the different browsers. I did try Greenbrowser but it would not work? I never saw E2 I will look for it thanks.

IE7 Beta is pretty sweet

by gswonsn - 9/28/05 12:27 PM In reply to: ie 7 beta for me by hoffmanbike

I must agree that IE 7 took me awhile to get used to but I am finding it much easier to use than either Firefox or Opera. I have tried all 3 just to see which one has the best features for me and I am certainly looking forward to the release of IE 7 for Windows XP.

Firefox Browser....

Have both IE and Firefox. Only use Firefox 1.0.
Find it totally reliable and clean.

My Opinion

by prayer - 9/27/05 6:05 PM In reply to: Which browser do you use most? by Marc Bennett Moderator

Why do I use Firefox? Whether or not I think it's safer isn't based on my empirical evidence; I listened to IT folks' newsletters and adopted it. Thus far, I love it!

I appreciate knowing Firefox is now declared highly vulnerable, but will continue to rely on experts' guidance about whether to stay with it or not. So far, I've had no problems with it.

Updates are pretty regular and developed when a problem is identified. And Mozilla doesn't have red tape to contend with to obtain downloads.

Tired of waiting

by Brad1980 - 9/28/05 6:12 AM In reply to: My Opinion by prayer

That was just great!!!

I hate waiting for 15 minutes everytime that I want to run the windows Update, and that's just for the Windows verification portion. That doesn't include the scan for updates that takes another ten.

It just seems funny to me that Windows with a file list of downloaded updates that it could take so long to find out which downloads you have already done.

But no personal information is being sent to Microsoft

In reply to which browser do you use

by smithcomputer - 9/27/05 6:07 PM In reply to: Which browser do you use most? by Marc Bennett Moderator

Call me a diehard but I still believe in Internet Explorer. Presently I use version 6 and can't wait to check out version 7. I am also just dying to get my hands on Windows Vista, which should be Microsoft's finest yet.

Personally, I think you're a little crazy waiting for IE 7, and Windows Vista sounds like something that should be watched from a distance.

(Pun intended)

Although it uses the IE kernel, it works very well, offers Tab Browsing and many useful features

Can you say, "MOUSE GESTURES"? I say, OPERA!!!

by johnetx - 9/27/05 6:11 PM In reply to: Which browser do you use most? by Marc Bennett Moderator

I've been using the free version of Opera for years, even with the banner it makes surfing much more pleasant than any other browser out there. And now they've eliminated the banner completely! The only time I don't use it is when web developers don't make a website compatable, then I switch to Firefox, and as a last resort IE6. Once you start using the mouse gestures that to my knowledge only Opera has, you'll hate having to search for the fwd,back, and new page/tab buttons. Plus I like the way you can customize it and get lots of different skins to appeal to most anyone. For all of you out there who were turned off by Opera's ad banner, give it a try now, you won't be disappointed. And NO, I don't work for Opera, I'm a telephone repairman in West Texas! Go Red Raiders!!!!

Maxthon Browser

by smitty3439 - 9/27/05 6:13 PM In reply to: Which browser do you use most? by Marc Bennett Moderator

I use the Maxthon brower and I love it - especially the tabbed pages. No more going back and forth to see a web page - just click on the page you want.
