I've been using it for about two years now and I absolutely love it. I was a FF guy before.

As a web designer, I must use a number of different browsers if I want my work to render similarly in all platforms. However, my browser of choice, the one I use for every-day surfing, is IE7. I've tried to be a good member of the coding community and switch to FF, but the fact for me is, FF renders text poorly, is not any faster at bringing up a page, and especially when using it on vB forums, it fails to refresh the page after a Quick Reply.

IE7 isn't perfect. Neither is FF. But IE will give me all the information it can on a page. If an image is broken, I know right away. In FF, that image just doesn't show, no red X or anything. In IE, script errors are reported in the lower left corner of the browser window. In FF, nothing. I can't tell you how many times I have reported to other sites, errors or missing images and the site owners weren't even aware of them - sometimes are irritated that I bring it up and blame IE or my settings.

The clique that many FF users are unregistered members of seem to have personal issues with IE and Microsoft. It's shameless bias. MS made a huge leap into popular browser functioning with IE7, but many hardcore FF users have taken little notice and even less of a trial run. I don't particularly care if MS played copycat, they put something together that is leaps and bounds better than IE6 - and I was a fan of IE6.

FF2 might be a good browser, but it hasn't lived up to its hype.

R'gards,

Jim

I'm using a lot of browsers for checking my webdevelopment, but Firefox 2 is my main browser.

Also on my computer:
  • Internet Explorer
  • Opera
  • Safari
  • Gran Paradiso, better known as Firefox 3 (alpha 7)

Maxthon > Firefox

Not only it uses less RAM but u cant compare the features and security and adhunter speed etc.

Super drag to open links in new tabs , Magick fill and tons of other

Actually firefox with all plugins is not even close to Maxthon without any plugins

Not to mention that it has the option to use gecko engine as well

Dont u believe me that its the best ?

Download and do a test for your self
