Title: Internet Explorer vs Firefox
Post by: potluck6 on April 19, 2015, 05:24:03 pm
I was having so many problems with I.E. so got Firefox with the help of my son-in law what a difference.There are sites that i couldn't do things on but now i can.I couldn't delete emails at Yahoo and now i can.Isay was almost impossible but today did a survey hey loving it.Even coke rewards which i thought iwas out of all together, worked  well today .So if you have I.E. get out now before things go wrong.Also if someone said install Firefox i'd be unable it just goes that way.So find a young person who will know exactly what to do.

I used to use Firefox, then started using Chrome.  I've been hearing good things about Firefox lately, though.  I prefer both of these to I.E.

I hate Internet Explorer. So unstable.  It didn't seem like any of their update versions actually did any better. For some reason I'm not expecting much with the newer replacement to Internet Explorer when this comes out. Firefox has been having constantly new releases on their browser, but I think they were much stable in the past. Of the two, I prefer Firefox.

I hate IE.  Firefox I used to love but now it's starting to get on my nerves because it's gets slow.

I used to love IE for years and then it seemed to not be so great anymore.  I was trying to find something better and tried Firefox & Chrome (and a few others) & hated them all.  IE didn't work any better for me so I switched to Firefox and I do like it BEST now.  (I've repeatedly tried Chrome but it really slows my computer down every single time.)  Firefox for me!

I used to have Firefox for my previous computer but now I am using Google Chrome. It is so easy when you have a new computer and faster too. But I did use IE and it doesn't work well with some of the files when you try to open them. But True, Firefox works and so as Google Chrome.

Eh neither i don't care for either there both memory hogs when it comes to just general stuff online. I'd rather use chrome or a altered version of it the altered versions seem to be more faster and streamlined which is good for this site the less on the browser the faster it seems to go

I quit using IE years ago.  I like Firefox for it's customization and add-ons.  If you just take some free time to sit and learn about your browser, you'll be expert in no time.  Firefox is, by far, the best browser out there.  I'm happy for you you found that out, LOL.

PS:  Internet Explorer is on it's way out.  With the next Windows OS (Windows 10), which will be released soon, there'll be a new browser.

I still use IE,  I leave it on because of hubby. It is what he is used to and gets all flustered with anything else. I am going to slowly introduce him to fire fox.  I keep thinking about just getting another computer and turning this one over too him but I hate the idea of another expense just right now. Every evening I have to come in and clean it up before closing because he will not log out on anything just click the red X.  Oh well if that is the least of things I can put up with it.

Honestly neither of those browsers are good at all. IE really stinks and FireFox is horrible. I use Safari and sometimes Chrome. I find those two browsers to be the best.

Firefox used to always bee my favorite browser, but it's pretty buggy nowadays. I use IE and don't have any problems, and I also use Chrome, but I don't really like any browsers any more. I wish Firefox would become stable again, because it's my main browser, even with all the problems.

Internet Explorer is so bad that Microsoft is actually going to discontinue it on their new Windows upgrades!

Personally, I prefer Google Chrome. It tends to mesh better with the FC offers than any other browser. But I used Firefox for a long time and I think it's pretty great still!

IE brand has been declining so bad, that Microsoft is considering making a new browser called Spartan. Firefox and Google Chrome has better functionality, speed, and customization compared to IE.

I can't stand IE ... switched to Firefox and Chrome years ago and I use them both

I've had difficulties with both lately.  My IE won't load correctly and the last time I was on Firefox I had a bunch of extensions crash my computer.  I've been using Google Crome lately.  It works well with my sweepstakes entries ~ it will fill in my information for me!

Both browsers you mentioned are the worlds worst browsers. Try using Safari or Chrome. I find them to be the best and the fastest.

My IE doesn't work on a lot of sites anymore so I have Firefox and Chrome now too on my computer.  I've just stuck with IE for FC and its the only site I go to everyday.  I don't use Chrome much because when I did try to use it for a little while, I kept getting viruses and was afraid it was not just a coincidence.

IE for now, since FF has too many ads popping up every couple of seconds.

At work I use IE for almost everything. One website doesn't work in IE so I have to use Firefox. At home I use Safari and have no problems.

I like FF, been using it for a few years now. I tried Chrome but didn't care for it much. I still keep IE and use it very occasionally because I found with some sites IE actually works better. I've had better luck with some of the videos  on here with IE than I do with FF but that doesn't happen often.

I like Firefox, I use it to do most of my work on the net. But I still use IE because I have hopes that it will become better.

Post by: tuyetmai on April 28, 2015, 07:50:00 pm
I use IE for a long time already so I think IE is my first option.  I think what ever you use first and you get use to it, you will like it better.

Firefox is really good.  It's what I use for FC.  However for everything else, I use Google Chrome.  It's my favorite browser!
