Internet Browsers

[mehavenomemory]

 I've been having lots of problems with browsers lately, I was a Fire Fox Believer up to this past weekend.. It seemed to get very slow at loading and giving me lots of grief.. So then I switched over to IE.. and ended up downloading the latest.. IE10.. Then I had more issues like on some forums I belong to, would not allow me to use my enter key.. I know you are thinking I have a virus.. I check it almost everyday with Norton.. and then let Norton do it another time.. So anyhow I am now using Google Chrome, and am having NO issues.. Not sure how to completely work it yet.. but so far I like it..

What do you use? and Why?

I use Firefox, simply because I can customize it to my liking with add-ons and plug-ins of my choice.  It warns me if there's a website I'm about to enter that is less than trustworthy and Firefox will leave the decision to enter up to you.

I see you use Norton as your anti-virus.  I use AVAST!.  It's completely FREE, unless you choose the paid version, and works better than any anti-virus I've ever "paid" for.  My personal opinion of Norton is that it's not very good at all.  I also use Malwarebytes, which is also a FREE program to use (not just "download").  If there's any trojans, etc., lurking on your computer, it'll pick it up.  Basically, everything anti-virus and anti-malware that I use on my own computer was FREE, and I haven't been bothered with viruses or trojans in YEARS.

      Mozilla Firefox is the best browser. There are a lot of things you can do with it. If you had some problems with it, probably the network was down at that time or the computer you were using was not working properly. Try again. Also download the latest version on that computer. Google: Mozilla Firefox latest version/free download and see what is available. Explorer browser is already using version 9. Mozilla Firefox also changes versions all the time. Do not forget to upgrade your browsers.

I just recently bought a new laptop.  It has Windows 8 and came with IE 10.  Some sites seem to not be able to handle IE 10.  I also have Chrome and I use this one more than IE 10.

I use Firefox on Linux (not Windows) and it's simple to Google for "Speed Up Firefox" to solve that problem. My biggest reason was to use X-Notify plugin, which is now available for some other browsers too. I have many Gmail accounts and it checks them all at once.

I usually use Firefox as well. But, last week it started shutting down randomly. I am not sure what happened. I used Google Chrome for a couple days, then decided to try Firefox again and nothing has gone wrong since. Maybe it was just a bad day? I am not sure. I do like both Firefox and Chrome better than Internet Explorer, or IE10.

I use Firefox with my PC. I have windows 7. I love Firefox and have no problems with it. I find that making sure I clean my computer with ccleaner everyday helps my computer run more efficiently. I use the free version and it even cleans the registry.  I don't use an anti virus program. I don't download anything that I don't know about and windows 7 monitors things like that anyway.

I consider using Google Chrome its more simple in its own ways even though it uses a lot of your Memory to run it.

I use chrome or firefox.

I use Firefox and IE. Like Firefox better because of the better design.

I use firefox for pogo only. IE for somethings like my son's online class curriculum and I use Google for other things as my main browser.

Thank you for all your inputs.. I have always loved Fire Fox except for the last little bit.. Think I'm going to uninstall it, and download the latest, and give it another try.. Thank you again everyone.. and Merry Christmas to YOU all and your families..

I use Maxthon browser, along with the free version of Microsoft Securities! I really like some of the
features of Maxthon!

I have used Firefox for years.  I stay away from the beta versions though.  I have Chrome downloaded since everyone's on that bandwagon, but the layout is too aggravating and I'd rather stick with what I know.
