FlashPeak Slimbrowser:
by In-Correct - 9/9/06 3:24 PM In reply to: Flashpeak's Slimbrowser by nandajoThis message is in reply to: "Flashpeak's Slimbrowser":
I already have it. I have been using it for a long time. It is the best internet browser that I know of. And I have NEVER lost my settings, which has happened on other browsers. It is also the fastest browser, and it locks up a lot less than other browsers, and it has an Automatic Recovery Feature allready loaded.
EVERY Computer should have it.
Tabbed Browsing
by cjgrif - 9/27/05 8:52 PM In reply to: Slimbrowser by samgroveSlimbrowser's tabbed browsing works differently than every other web browser out there (the way entering a URL into the address bar will open the page in a new tab instead of in the current tab, etc.); by far I like Slimbrowser the best.
IE
by jc1234 - 9/28/05 12:03 AM In reply to: Slimbrowser by samgroveI USE INTERNT EXPLOER VERSION 6 WITH XPSP2 AND I HAVE NTLWORLD AS MY HOMEPAGE,I ALSO HAVE BULLGUARD AS MY ANTIVIRUS AND FIREWALL AND I HVAE NO PROBLEMS WITH VIURUS OR HACKERS AND IF I DID BULLGUARD ARE EVER SO HELPFULL
internet explorer 6
by fiona-grace - 11/30/05 1:12 AM In reply to: IE by jc1234i have always used internet explorer!
when i learnt how to use a computer that is what i learnt on and i have used it since 1999 when i first arrived on the internet!
i have thought about firefox but i have heard bad stuff about it too....
internet explorer works fine for me so if something is working fine then i stick with it!
Crap is not a rose.
by wolfgangmo - 9/28/05 1:07 AM In reply to: Slimbrowser by samgroveHmmmmm. Once again a product that emulates a better product and it only came out 2 years after. When will you windows chaps look up from your dreaded blue screen of death and smell the apples. Safari does everything slimbrowser does, only it did it 2 years ago and it does it without IE's obvious security flaws, and without being a memory hog. Safari is leaner, meaner, and better. Nyah.
Sorry for you.
by FrenchyHey - 9/28/05 4:10 PM In reply to: Slimbrowser by samgroveI am replying to your message with Firefox 1.07 it does the job in this site and for my banking account I use and access and download from ATI and have actualy an open tickets whith them using Firefox to log in and see the actual ticket answer and solution.
No they did not find yet a solution to my problems 
.
I log also to my MSN.CA automaticaly from Firefox and I am a suscriber of Hotmail+.
Site that I can't use with Firefox is MSN Games for that I use IE and another one with ActiveX required.
I have installed on my kids Firefox after they were infested with Spyware and Trojent because they when to site that target them to target me after.
They when back of course 
but not infestation yet and now Anti-Virus is doing it Job.
I am using BMO and Caisse Populaire Online Banking and know exactly when I am secure having my address bar turning all together in Yellow in addition to the small padlock.
Once your banking organisation see the benefit of Open Standard for the Website they will follow and maybe you will comeback at that time.
I must add that I could now from the Set Programm Access Defaut tell XP to use Firefox as Primary and even disable IE access of course not IE itself.
I am not going to say like religious guy here to only use Firefox but to use it as least as possible so that real competition start and trive. Only by competition are we truly served. See the example of AMD vice Intel. Without AMD we would still be with Pentinium 75 ok teasing say 600 at 25Mhz increase a year and far away from Hypertrading.
MP3 gave freeedom of the media on wich you listen your music and now Microsoft and Aple try to lock again that although I use very often Multimedia Player Version 10 to play my .avi movie and for the rest rely on my Creative MediaSource Player and other commercial software including Divx Player.
Up to you to go back to IE and not giving a hard time to your banking institution but I would at least give them a small feedback about their none compliance toward open standard?
As you could see I like Microsoft but not all the way.
Have a great day.
What are you talking about??
by In-Correct - 9/9/06 3:37 PM In reply to: Sorry for you. by FrenchyHeyAnd what exactly is your point?? It sounds like you are saying that FireFox is better and it's NOT. I have had FireFox Crash and reset itself so many times, that I stopped using it and used FlashPeak SlimBrowser. Have you not even used it?? It isn't the same as IE, It is much better. It actually more secure than IE, and anybody can configure their computer to block all those virus things. All you have to do is block 3rd Party Cookies, PopUps, and activate the Firewall and use anti virus and spyware software. If your computer is infested with trojans, all you need to do is that stuff, and not switch to FireFox.
Slimbrowser and Pc-cillin the perfect ...
by Brujitita - 9/30/05 4:03 AM In reply to: Slimbrowser by samgroveSlimbrowser and Pc-cillin the perfect combination I have been using this combination for the last 7 years and it works. I love the anti-popup the frequent updates and all the other useful options they supply. A browser that one would be advised to give a try.
Slimbrowser does the job
by flytdeck - 11/25/05 2:49 AM In reply to: Slimbrowser by samgroveThis browser has the features I want, works reliably and does a good job blocking popups. Tabs and groups are used constantly.
Honestly, I have not been tempted by any other browser since I started using this one. The security features must be adequate as I have not encountered a problem for the 4 years I have been using the program.
Which browser do you use most?
by Bruce D Ranger - 9/27/05 5:16 PM In reply to: Which browser do you use most? by Marc Bennett
Netscape version 8.0.3.3
Mozilla
by CrazyBare - 9/27/05 5:26 PM In reply to: Which browser do you use most? by Bruce D RangerI've been useing Mozilla 5.0 version 1.7.6 since November 2004, and have no problems with it.
On my last PC I had Netscape 4.7. I didn't upgrade to 6 as it had too many problems with it.
Mozilla
by jegabele - 9/27/05 6:52 PM In reply to: Mozilla by CrazyBareI also prefer the complete Mozilla suite, but, for security reasons and a performance boost, you should update to version 1.7.12. I have no problems with it.
Also,if you are not using it, download the multizilla 1.7.9.0 add on.
Jim
Mozilla - Multizilla
