OK, here to uh contradict myself lmao.


I use to use IE, which until 7 had security risks, which SP2 fixed alot of which made IE one of the most secure. Opera in my opinion is more secure than anything but, that's me and I don't use it.

I currently use Firefox because of it's update is more secure plus I now have IE Tabbed browsing, which allows my Glow on my website to work :).

Hmm... Where are you getting your information from I wonder...?

Anyway, I should point out that Internet Explorer does have addons that allow tabbed browsing. Of course in IE7 its included by default but there is a toolbar called Windows Live Toolbar (formerly MSN Toobar) that gives basic tabbed browsing functionatily to Internet Explorer 6. Its not perfect and Internet Explorer 7 still has better tabbed support, but Firefox & Opera certainly beat it.

Opera has had tabbed browsing for the longest - because it was around before Firefox, but then again, Firefox kinda evolved from Mozilla which came out of Netscape which was around Opera (and even before Internet Explorer), so maybe Firefox's ancestor did get it first.

No, no I didn't mean Tabbed Browzing, but Firefox has an option to open a Tab with IE support. Which means things that are not compatable with Firefox works with Firefox but doens't use IE. You should know we had a big argument over this if I am not mistaken lol.

YOU WIN FIREFOX IS BETTER THAN IE! Happy? lmao. :P I love Firefox, I always have but some website made me not use it.. and not that I have my Glow Text in FireFox, I am happy and I use it more than anything else. But tabbed browzing does kinda get me all turned around, not really use to it.

Firefox's tabbed browsing is one of its best features.

As for the IETab - this does indeed use regular internet explorer, so whatever bugsa, flaws and caveats that internet explorer has would be present through the use of IETab in Firefox. I'm not saying 100% don't use it, I'm just saying to beware that if you are using old or insecure versions of Internet Explorer don't think that IEtab can fix that because it can't. IETab just tells firefox to use the Internet Explorer engine underneath.

To prove it... right **** on a webpage in regaulr firefox (not using IETab) and then right **** in Internet Explorer... you will see the difference. Also note the difference in the way downloads are handled - IETab is Internet Explorer - just in the Firefox skin.

Yes but I still have Tabbed Browzing. Which allows me to use IE on the sites I need to but use Firefox most the time. I get what your saying but since I didn't put IE7 back on my computer FireFox works perfectly with me. But still you won our debate are you not happy?

I am 20 years old, I am not completely stupid to the computer world. I have been using Computers and Internet ever since I was 8 years old. I think I have a basic grip on what is what. :).
