  1. 20% of UK internet users will be surfing with Mozilla Firefox at the end of this year
  2. Thunderbird 1.1 will have other antiphishing tools.
  3. Firefox is designed for beginers, for people just switching from the deprecated IEMozilla is designed for advanced users. It as much more options and features, but that can frighten beginers.Just find in which case you are and choose the right browser.By the way, there is an intermediate level between them, still with the same render engine (Gecko) : KMeleon, but it's win32 only (it's the faster graphic browser on win32)
  4. You're wrong. IE Mac is much most modern than IE win32, with more standard compliance et less bugs. IE Mac use the Tasman engine, whereas IE win32 use the buggy Trident engine...

    There is allready a topic about mail clients... http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/404.png

    Free Software List

    Because the program will still remain closed source, that is full of spywares, bugs, and security issues.If you like to have a computer infested, and controled by other people, it's your problem. But most people don't...
  7. Mozilla supports perfectly frames (they were introduced by Netscape). So the problem comes from your site. First, try to validate it...

    A freeware is a software you don't have to pay in order to use it. A free software is a software which garanties you some essential freedoms : - you're free to use it - you're free to study it and adapt it for your needs (that imply that the software must be open-source) - you're free to distribute it - you're free to distribute your modifications Freewares usually are closed source. And you can't modify them. So they're not free softwares (and users should avoid them, because for example of problems with closed formats, on dependency to an editor, of spywares...). You can read this page which explains this more detailled, and in a better english.

    That's absolutly wrong.
  10. By the way, Mozilla 1.8a6 was released this week. And to add a few things to bjrn's post about SVG : First, you have to know that SVG will replace Flash in few years Second, Epiphany (the GNOME browser, using Gecko engine) has SVG enable by default.
  11. It's a native function... By the way, here are some new security holes of IE.
  12. Use Session Saver extension Wrong : here it is...
  13. You can use this extension to browse WML sites with gecko browsers...
  14. You can do this with all modern mail clients...
  15. Yes, and it shows that you missed many important things. And this post confirms it That doesn't mean anything. GNU is a project, a concept, a philosophy.It's frigthening that you could ignore it... Gentoo is a distribution.One again, you talk about things you don't understand... Linux is faster than Windows?, everybody admit it. If it was slower for you, it's because you use a slow DM, KDE. If you've allready used anything else, name it. Maybe there is an even heavier DM than KDE...
  16. You've allready found the anwser : You're using KDE, which is heavy and slow. Use a better desktop manager, and you'll see that it's faster than Windows If for you the registry isn't hard, then a 4-years-old child can use all linux commands... No : only few win32-softwares are supported with things like Wine and Cross-over.There are much more native softwares that doesn't exist on win32. That's why there si more choice of softwares for GNU/Linux...
  17. GNU/Linux is free GNU/Linux is open source GNU/Linux is lighter GNU/Linux is more custumizable GNU/Linux is faster GNU/Linux is more user friendly (you don't have to dig in the registry to change an option) GNU/Linux is much more secure GNU/Linux doesn't crash GNU/Linux has more choice of softwares (except for games)
  18. No : KMeleon is faster than Opera. (But it's win32 only...)
  19. No, it isn't :Maxthon is based on IE, so it has the same bugs, the sames hudge security holes, and the same problems with internet standards. How many times will we have to repeat it ? One thing you apparently don't know, is that people using IE don't do it by choice, but simply because they don't know that modern browsers exist. So how could they vote to a pool "What is the best browser ?" if they don't know them ?
  20. Firefox supports stylesheets following web standards, whereas IE support has hudge bugs.
  21. Yes, that's a problem from Dreamweaver. but we all know that this software is rubbish...
  22. You're wrong, that's absolutly the contrary. You can ask all webmasters they'll confirm it :It's much more easy to write a website for gecko browsers (like Firefox) than for the deprecated IE. Because Gecko understands webstandards : when you tell it something, it renders it like you want. But if you ask something to IE, it doesn't understand it, or it renders it stupidly... You can try with PNG images and alpha transparency for example...
  23. You should try to launch it with the command line. If it still doesn't work, install Mozilla instead : your computer must be infected, so you absolutly need a secure browser..
