Bye bye Firefox

IE7 crapped out my fairly new installation of XPS 700
cant do uninstall, cant to system restore, it just lags royally at boot to an unusable state

i do however have IE7 on another Dell and it runs fine.
 
FF2 sucks (before 2.0 I was a FF fangirl). I love Opera. IE7 was installed at work today and I must say I really liked it. Installed it at home and am liking it even more.

Opera > IE7 > FF2
 
I've found IE7 to be pretty unstable and have had to support quite a few major issues immediately following its installation on machines.

IE7 keeps crashing on me.

Were I work in the morning, my boss just installed IE7, pretty much every time you close the browser, it gets a damn error. IE7 has experienced an error, and must close now, bullcrap! For closing it? PLEEEEASE. That is ridiculous. I hate it.

ETA - We did have to change one setting in IE7 to allow for windows scripting but other than that everybody seems to like it after they've been shown how to use it. They're really loving the tabs. Mind you, these are NOT tech savvy women at all. LOL

ETAA - Didn't mean to quote myself! LOL! Meant to edit. Hahahaha! 😱

where are all the extensions for ie7?

oh wait, they're only built for firefox. my bad.

ff2 > ie7.
Actually, there are a lot of 'add-ons' available. Right now, most of the good ones you have to pay for. The code is out there for others to build their own add-ons.

One of two things will happen.

#1 - People will build add-ons for IE7 and charge for them. FF extension builders will follow suit and all hell will break loose with the FF users.

or

#2 - People will build add-ons for IE7 for free and all will be right in the world.

Personally, I'm expecting #1 will happen but am hoping for #2. 🙂

I'm starting to hate the various problems I have with it too, but I'm really liking the spell checker.

Use ieSpell for IE6/7 🙂

a little bit of all firefox users die a little inside when one of our own switches to M$.
