So, as a follow-up to my Miss America browser post the other day, I should mention I have been using Mozilla Firefox for a couple of weeks now. It's wonderful. There are cool add-ons and everything. If any of you haven't tried it you should. You can even download it for free off the interwebs.   |

LOL! I was sold about 6 months ago. There are still some things I don't like/don't get, but every day I dislike IE more and more, and use only for work related stuff.
I have trouble with No Script blocking stuff, and I have some things I can't get to load/run, but I'm too lazy /stoopid to go in and try to configure.

Trust the site: allow scripts, don't trust it: don't allow scripts.  |

Trust the site: allow scripts, don't trust it: don't allow scripts. I know. Prob. is, I go to a site, nothing loads. --> allow. Prob there is, it usually reloads, and blows out everything I have in. = start over. Not proactive to do it first. Some things like certain video feeds, never play. Have to go to IE. |

Firefox loads everything IE can for me. Make sure you have all the plug-ins ( not extensions) installed for what your trying to view. |

I have this problem on the laptop that is running Linux, can't watch YouTube at all. Have tried to install Flash but can't seem to get it to work. Still playing around with it. On the desktop I also have Safari and will use that sometimes. I never use IE anymore, except at work where it's required. |
