Web Browser

Internet explorer seems to stop responding a lot and I have to constantly use the task manager to end it. I am assuming it is the browser but I might be wrong what might it be and do you recommend getting another browser.

Firefox is really good, I use that sometimes. Opera, Google Chrome, and everything else just sucks.

   I’ve tried all of them. Ranging from IE, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, Safari, and Chrome. I’d have to say firefox is the best. I also have windows vista and windows xp and firefox is best on both platforms.

   I just switched from IE to Mozilla Firefox. I really like firefox, and it seems to be pretty stable. I am using vista home premium, as well. Give it a try, it’s free.

   OK here is the heiarchy of web browsers (list of browsers best to worst)
   1) Google Chrome – quickest browser out there, google is amazinng. it has some kinks so dont get it if your not pc savy, but the speed is worth it. i use this browser.

   Opera is the best browser for any platform. It is the fastest and safest browser on earth with fully customizable buttons, skin, javascript, Bookmarklet, toolbar, and much much more. Some suggested Firefox, which i won’t recommend it to anyone. It is because firefox eat a lot of resource and it slows down a lot. Also, it’s third-parties add-ons can actually be very unsafe. However, it’s really up to you.

   Choose your path:
   Get Opera Here —–> http://www.opera.com/
   Get Firefox Here —–> http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

   It really depends on what you are looking for in a browser. Internet Explorer has been around for ages, and has the full support of Microsoft behind it. It is sleek and powerful, but on old(ish) computers that may slow you down a bit. Still, as the standard browser, you won’t find many other negatives with it.
   Internet Explorer 8 Beta 2: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/product...

   Mozilla FireFox is a highly customizable browser. New themes and gadgets are released every week, and this gives a personal feel to it when viewing websites. Although it slows the computer down, it isn’t as bad as IE, though on a fast computer, you won’t notice much of a difference between the two.
   FireFox 3.0.3: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all...

   Other options available are Opera Browser. This browser offers very limited customization features (only a colour change in fact), but because of this gives very fast browsing. it doesn’t require as many resources as IE or FF, but it isn’t very fun to browse in something that looks as out-of-date as it does.
   Opera 9.62: http://www.opera.com/download/

   The final major browser is Apple Safari. In my opinion it is the fastest of the 4 browser and my personal favourite. Its style is based on the iTunes layout and it doesn’t offer any customizability, but if you like iTunes, you’ll love this browser. Its major downfall is the fact that it doesn’t render (load) webpages very well. This can become very irritating while browsing so most people don’t give it a second thought. It does run very fast (even on slow computers) and has the fastest startup time of all browsers. If you find that the pages you usually visit work fine on Safari, you won’t have anything bad to say about it.
   Safari 3.1.2: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/s...

   A new introduction to the Browser market is Google Chrome, Google’s first attempt at an internet browser. It is currently in a beta version, but it seems to be one of the fastest browsers out there. But, as it is still in beta, there are many stability and security problems with it. I would recommend against using it as your primary browser, for the moment at least, until the final release comes out.
   Google Chrome 0.3.154.9 Beta: http://www.google.com/chrome/index.html?...

   So it really depends on what kind of person you are and what type of computer you have. You can’t go wrong with IE or FF, but under stress, they perform slowly, Opera is a boring looking browser but can run where the other two can’t, Safari has problems with rendering many webpages and there are far too many security risks with Chrome, but is much the fastest of them all. I personally use all five of them (but IE and Safari are my main two). If Apple ever get the rendering process sorted, it would be my number 1 choice.
