Firefox encumbrance

Jim · 2006-08-14, 07:36 AM

I have tried to use firefox several times. But I just can't get used to it. I used the new beta of IE 7 and it seems to have all the features people say they like about firefox. Now if they can get it so it actually works with my PC, I will be all set

But no, I can't see ever trying to use firefox again.

That's strange Eman

Just tried a ccbill link here and no problems at all.

Checked my FF settings as you describe and that they're at default. That TLS box isn't checked...

Are you perhaps using an older version of FF?

Agreed Jim...using FF did take a bit of getting used to. But, now that I have...I find IE to be a slow, cumbersome pos when I do have to use it (rarely).

I love my FF

Interesting info, though. It just made me check my settings - all the SSL boxes are checked and I haven't changed anything...maybe this is the default setting?

Anything that possibly hurts sales is not good

I use both of them. I like features of both. A couple of thing that I don't like about IE 7 is that it takes a while to load pages. It will open part of the page, but won't let you scroll. Also, too many tabs can cause IE7 to crash... haven't had that problem with FF.

Forget which browser they're using, it won't matter, but turn off Javascript and try signing up via any CCBill join form. They really need to get rid of their dependence on JS for completing a signup.

I use Safari the most but Firefox almost as much. Since MS dropped development on their Mac platform browser (IE 5.2.3 was the last version for Macs), I only fire up Explorer to check out new sites.

I agree

And thanks for the tip you offered in the other thread Simon

You're right Mr Yum - I was using Ver 1

I've just upgraded to 1.5 and the problem's gone.
