Those on here who use Firefox

Why would anyone not want to use Firefox ahead of IE; FF is quicker (albeit only marginally), it has tabbed browsing, it's open source - which means you can customise it to the MAX™, and most importantly, it's around 1,000,000,000% (source: rough guess) more secure than Internet Explorer.

 

I suppose it is actually a pretty tight contest between them though... You know, if you just blissfully ignore all the major differences between them.

Considering they have ripped off tab-browsing from Mozilla I wouldn't put too much faith in that.

I stand to be corrected, but I'm pretty sure Opera first introduced that feature! :)

I've had Opera a while but could never get away with it, something just doesn't sit right. I only use it when I'm making a website as I like to test it on a few different browsers before uploading.

I'm the opposite. There's something which doesn't sit quite right with Firefox for me. Tried it a couple of times but the one nag I have with it is that you cannot minimise all the windows. Might sound daft to some but it's a feature of Opera 7 which I've grown used to. They don't have it in Opera 8 hence why I haven't upgraded.

 

However, if anyone knows a way to minimise all the windows in Firefox - let me know and i'll be willing to have another crack at it! :)

firefox is brilliant for porn - theres a great extension you can download that lets you download all the pics or movies on a page to a folder that you specify - all in one click.

 

ie is my main browser.

Alreetlike,

 

Is there a layman's program you could recommend for making a website?

 

I have a mate who'll let me have some webspace on his server but I need to make the site myself.

 

Nothing too flash just a place people can download mp3s and maybe some pics. The design part I can do myself as I did it for A level.

 

Any advice would be well appreciated :)

Try Macromedia Dreamweaver, although to get the most out of it you do need to know some HTML. But you can make sites up through the graphical interface without knowing any.

Which is what I said - Opera introduced tabbed browsing when Mozilla was still the development arm of Netscape browser !
