It appears that no one has picked up this thread for at least a month. I hate IE. IE4, IE4.5 (for Mac) IE 5, (IE 5.2 for Mac), IE 6. I skipped 7 and IE 8 is no better than the rest. I liked Netscape but it has become Mozilla/Firefox and is very unpopular in my house. It tried to lock me out of one of my PC's. I had to back door the machine with an administrator trick to even perform simple tasks like disk cleanup and defrag. Every other toolbar I've downloaded has attached itself automatically to IE., whether I wanted them to or not. Most toolbars will tell you before you download if it is compatible with Other browsers than IE or Firefox, or Safari. I downloaded the infamous Shop at Home toolbar with Chrome and ran the exe with both IE and Chrome. It occupies 3 bars at the top of IE and with my earthlink toolbar there is more bars than window! The same Shop at Home functions appeared in Chrome as a completely separate frame that, over the course of a few days , disappeared. Maybe there is a software guru out there that can explain why Chrome is so much faster and efficient but doesn't play well with others (specifically, handy dandy toolbars). I would like to give the FC toolbar a go, everyone that uses it raves about it but I don't plan on swapping browsers just to go to Fusion Cash. My desktop PC doesn't like it when I have two different browsers open at the same time. Can anybody 'splain me whats going on? Does FC plan to create a toolbar version for Chrome?
Microsoft operating systems have just been one patch after another to fix the problems of the previous release. My base OS on this machine is DOS 6.2 upgraded to Windows upgraded to Windows 95 upgraded to 98SE upgraded to XP pro upgraded to SP3. Is Chrome so radically different that programs written for IE will never work? Like Mac OS 7.5 and Win95 could both read jpegs but not those created on one by the other without a translator program like DAVE?
I sure hope someone can shed some some light on this dilemma. Would our moderator know where there is a master index of posts or which programming genius to get a hold of to ask about FC toolbar development?
