BEWARE

DO NOT download Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 yet – as it still in the Beta system, which in turn cods up some of the banking systems and then you a VERY big problem.

This has happened to me..

I have tried to delete the IE8 from the my computer, but their system will not allow me to do so, so much now I have had to ask an expert to come in and help me tangle this out.

I can get onto the banking systems, but cannot do anything, like paying bills, seeing what is coming and what I have going out – this has really frustrated me, have been in touch with Microsoft, but they haven’t come back. My bank suggested that I use Safari as that is user friendly on most sytems. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

I just want a browser that works fine with the minimum of fuss, and IE7 fits the bill just fine, Once you put the security paranoia aside and stop giving into the “war on terror – scare the populace” tactics used by Firefox etc and realise that an extra second to do something is of no consequence (is your time really that important?) then IE7 wins. It comes ready installed and works well – end of story.

I know I’ll be called various names for this post – but there you go.

A lot of good points here are not being brought across well because of sloppy writing and/or grammar.

I use Firefox and find it is the easiest to use. It is very user friendly and customizable. The pages load pretty fast and the browser is easy to install/uninstall. I give firefox 8/10.

Well Rich, for my computer to load Safari, it takes about 22 seconds and for firefox, IT WAS SO SLOW, so i unistalled it and then i tryed internet explorer, that was just to horribly made becouse i need ADD – ONS and that safari,firefox and Opera 9.5 don’t need them so i found Opera 9.5 a couple of days ago and downloaded it, when i tryed Opera 9.5, it was very very very fast and thats why Opera 9.5 is the best browser i will ever have

Safari 3.1.2 loads pages way faster then firefox.=) i have been using firefox for 3 years now over IE because its so slow. I love firefox but safari is really really fast no problems with it in fact i use it as default its good on memory i only have 512 mb ram installed. Firefox needs to step up with the speed!

Well, since that Safari and Opera 9.5 are running good with security but my problem is about Microsoft Internet explorer, it is horribly going down with its
relibility becouse when i wanted to download Internet explorer 8, it was succseful but first it told me that i was running with out ADD – ONS wich i never heard of and then i found the ADD – ONS and it told me to disable them and then it told me to undisable them, it was very confusing and then i swiched to Safari wich i had about for 2 months and then when i was getting tired of it i wanted soemthing more safer and more colerful becouse Safari was good with its safety, but the Gray backround it had was horrible becouse it had no coler what so ever, but i still like safari even know the Steve jobs should make Safari more Colorful, and as i was saying, then i swiched to Opera 9.5 wich is MUCH MUCH better than internet explorer 8 becouse it has Skins for the backround and alot of cool widgets like checkers, an on screen clock and the wether, so take my advice if you want the worlds Fastest, most safest and most stylish Internet Browser get
Opera9.5

Let’s hope Opera tweaks it a little more. It’s still the fastest surfing experience as far as I know, practically, but I haven’t tried Safari yet. Firefox feels and looks sluggish, so I won’t be using it primarily anytime soon. Opera still lacks addons, so it works for general surfing.
