AJKING Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Just wanted to know what browser you you or like the best? Quote
Demi:Pulse Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Konqueror. Good old Linux + KDE has never failed me. When on someone else's computer, I carry around FF on a keydrive. Quote
awesomegamer Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Me too, I just ahve a small 512MB drive of simple things like that. I will get linux soon. What is Konqueror like? I know KDE. Quote
Demi:Pulse Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Konqueror is pretty slim, acts like a file manager as well as a internet browser, much like IE, only more useful and without the spyware. =P I recommend it alongside FF, which I also have on this PC. K seems to run faster, though. Quote
Kyougi Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 I prefer Opera anywhere, on any OS. I only use Konqueror when too lazy to open the browser Quote
Demi:Pulse Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Yes, I suppose Opera is pretty good up there. The only problem is that I found it hard to use some sites that require either an ActiveX object or a Firefox plugin. Even if you mask as Firefox, it still won't work! It's probably the only reason I keep FF around, honestly. Quote

It's probably the only reason I keep FF around, honestly. Hah, ActiveX? I runs teh Linux, there's no running ActiveX anyways. I haven't seen a site yet that requires a Firefox plugin. I've never seen the sense in running a GTK browser in a QT environment, so I don't bother keeping it around. Quote
Asgard Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 Of all the browsers I have used I like Mozilla Firefox the most. Opera doesn't have a logo in my list of programs ('Open with...') and Internet Explorer 6 doesn't display things correctly (png's, div's) and runs all kinds of annoying scripts. It used to be my favorite browser though, when I still had Windows ME (awful OS) where it was still integrated with Windows Explorer. Firefox was a major improvement... Tabbed browsing, add-ons, skins (I never make use of this option, but at least it's there if I would want it), built in popup blocker, better search, standard Google search... For me, no other browser can beat that. Quote
joemama718 Posted July 11, 2007 Posted July 11, 2007 lol safari...i tried it on windows and uninstalled it a week later...kept on crashing. and at least it could've remembered the session, which it didn't. i still use firefox...opera doesn't have great support sometimes, and honestly i don't feel much of a difference.

Geou Posted July 12, 2007 Posted July 12, 2007 Firefox is most definitely my favorite, although I hear Safari is very good as well. Quote
Geou Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Also, the extensions are a really big factor in why I think Firefox is the best. No other browser has them like Firefox. Quote

I've never seen the sense in running a GTK browser in a QT environment, so I don't bother keeping it around. Here's your first one. And, I dual boot between Linux and XP, hence that. Surely you can't tell me you haven't stumbled across a site that required an AX object, though - even if you can't run it! And yes, TBone, FF is more secure by a longshot. Quote
