What browser are you using now?

Evil Chris · 12-30-2002, 02:24 PM

I used to use Netscape waaaay back at ver 1.2 and prior but I got on the IE bandwagon at around ver 3.0 and never really looked back.

What does everyone use now?

sherie · 12-30-2002, 02:30 PM

Same!! IE

modF · 12-30-2002, 02:40 PM

Opera for linux mainly, but I do use Opera/IE on Windows.

Panky · 12-30-2002, 02:57 PM

IE here! I'll use Netscape only to test sites for compatibility and design. Main browser usage is IE.

I use mozilla... have for a long time.... long before Netscape scooped it up and rebranded it for themselves.

The only thing that is semi annoying about it is that you have to go and get plugins for everything, like quicktime, flash, shockwave... everything. But in reality, it's kinda better, cause you don't end up with a fully loaded browser with tons of stuff ya never use.

This thing has popup blockers, awesome cookie and image management based on servers you're on, it has amazing password and form management....

It puts windows into tabs and loads them in the background, instead of spawning whole other windows all the time.

it's just an all around better browser in my opinion... and is continually getting so much better with every release.

Mister X · 12-30-2002, 11:30 PM

I mostly use IE because it's the defacto standard. I've been using Mozilla a lot lately though. It's a very nice tight browser and because it's being updated constantly there are very few compatibility problems. I used to have Netscape 4.7 installed to check compatibility but I haven't bothered reinstalling the last 3 months. I used to swear by Opera but they have really fallen behind the pack and there always compatibility issues. Now I just use it to check that pages I design will work in Opera.

It has popup blockers? How?

I use Mozilla, IE6 doesn't work well with our satellit software and causes it to enable its "FAIR ACCESS POLICY" (Translated, YOU GET MODEM SPEED BECAUSE YOU'RE USING YOUR CONNECTION). Mozilla apparently doesn't report the number of connections to the software so it doesn't break things.

Sure! That would be interesting....
I'm considering installing a version of Netscape..., but this is the only copy I have.... LMAO

wsjb78 · 12-31-2002, 11:47 AM

I just made two screenshots. Since I'm using a rather high-resolution and don't won't to compress it too much so that you still can see all clearly I just link to them here:

I wonder what you could get for that baby on Ebay?

If you're considering a new version of Netscape just go to mozilla.org and get Mozilla instead. It's basically the same thing as Netscape 7 but you don't have to wade through all of the AOL corporate bullshit to d/l it.

Requirements are Windows 3.1 or higher. Windows for workgroups 3.11 or higher

BobbyR · 01-01-2003, 11:35 AM

netscape is a great browser but IE is what most everyone is using these days.

Juge · 01-01-2003, 12:08 PM

I've used IE since the days of netscape 3, I think. Before then, I used netscape all the time, and switched only because it crashed too often, and I knew IE was built into the OS, so it shouldn't crash. Even though I hated tons of features of IE (like managing favourites from within IE - which STILL sucks big time), I stuck with it.

XxXotic · 01-01-2003, 01:26 PM

i.e. 6

cool1 · 01-01-2003, 04:01 PM

Opera or IE depending on my mood that day.
If i'm in a fuck you mood I will use Opera 6.5
when its the could care less mood I use IE 5.5

asiangogo · 01-01-2003, 08:24 PM

Using Opera & i just love the way i can have 30 windows open from within the browser and not on the task bar and if it crashes it has an option on restart to strat before the crash so i get all my windows back and start right where i left off.

BuggyG · 01-01-2003, 08:52 PM

I use both IE and NEtscape. Work pretty good both. But with IE ya never know it just pulls an attack and screws up on ya. So I got netscape for backup. Cause ya know, with Microsoft ya can never be 100% sure. Well in my case

LAJ · 01-02-2003, 02:45 AM

Never used anything but IE

I think I may try Opera... Sounds like it's "popup friendly"

wsjb... thanks for the screenshots. Looks nice!

jact · 01-02-2003, 10:09 AM

I just installed Opera and hot damn am I impressed! I'd never used it before but I think it's going to be my new favorite browser. I'll use Mozilla as my backup for sites that don't exactly work right (Found a few already)
