Originally posted by SuperFarStucker I've always found mozilla to feel bloaty. I was a big fan of it in the pre 1.0 milestone days (when it was really buggy). I just kind of think opera woops its ass though. Does everything moz does in a much smaller package.

Firebird takes care of that, no more bloat. If you still like the email client (Thunderbird, it's possible to just download it separately from Firebird.

I never touch IE now, I still have Netscape installed though, just incase Firebird (Which is still at 0.7) doesn't render something properly. Opera is a decent browser as well.

why would you use anything else besides IE. its build right into windows, and unless you're using linux or mac, then there's no point.

Simply because other browsers are better.

Firebird isn't bloated, and has quite a few features that put IE to shame. Firstly, it doesn't have the security holes that IE has, it has what is called tables browsing, which basically means that you can open multiple pages in the one window, with tabs up the top to switch between the different sites. It also has built in popup blocker, a built in search engine plugin/toolbar (Which atm searches google). The download system is also far superior, and it has a massive amount of extensions available.

That's just a little glimpse of why it's better, take a look at mozilla.org and find the firebird page if you want a huge listing.


BTW - I hate it how it's built into Windows, there should be an option to remove it.

Safari oooownz IE

I use Safari. Its a lot faster than IE and has a pop-up blocker.
