After using Firefox for a couple of months...

[isekii]

I still prefer I.E

Firefox is slow as **** in loading webpages, images, etc...
The only feature I like about it is well... nothing.



Oh yea, ebay pages don't load right either.
(I have the latest firefox browser with all the updates)

Firefox > *

 

[IAteYourMother]

ok

 

[ElFenix]

sounds like user error

 

[Hyperblaze]

Have fun with spyware!

 

[loic2003]

I found firefox is only slower upon initial startup. Thereafter, it's quicker.

1) Learn WTF you're doing with FireFox because it's obvious that you don't have a clue.
2) FireFox is just as fast as IE on my box if not faster.
3) eBay loads juuuuuuuust fine for me.

Don't blame your dumbassedness on FireFox.

The one thing I really hate about FF is when you input an invalid web address FF just completely locks up and takes a few minutes to release. Of course I can do a cntrl-alt-del but it would shut down all my other FF windows as well.

1) WRONG - you can tweak firefox settings to make it a HELLUVA lot faster than the default install's bottleneck settings.
2) Fix your goddamn computer and don't blame it on FF because FF is simply wonderful.
3) No, I want my goddamn coffee - which probably explains my PMS.

It does it with legit working websites too.
Like international websites.
It takes forever to load and at times says the address is invalid. When it loads fine and dandy in I.E

Wow, mine doesn't work like that at all. I get instant notification that the URL is invalid. Guess it's not a firefox problem, is it.

 

[imported_moeru]

All pages load fine for me except for those coded specifically to work in IE. If it runs slow on your system, something is wrong. I wouldn't automatically blame the browser.

 

[dug777]

meh i agree with some of those (been using for maybe a month)..
compared to IE;

takes 'much' longer to load up at first (well a few seconds longer)
seems slower about the net
and seems to use a huge amount of memory sometimes

but it has forecastfox which i really like, and the difference isn't that great that i really care which one i use now, depends on which icon i click on in quick launch first i guess

Then fix your computer.

The fact that FF works *flawlessly* on millions of computers around the world is a testament to your not knowing WTF you're doing.

Well, thats a problem I have on my work computer. I don't have that problem with IE. IE gives me instant notification. I still use FF though.

 

[Scarpozzi]

I use to many web-based utilities at work that only work for IE. I like firefox, but still feel that IE loads faster, etc.

Firefox Smashes I.E. into billions of peices.
