Web Browser

i know regular web browsers can access the internet and download and use web pages. but other programs like microsoft word, can open web pages, and this bypasses many blocks. im wondering if theres any other programs, that may be better but are not a web browser.

as some people may guess, im off to school, where the internet has many blocks, if anyone has a better idea on how to bypass blocks, they would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, every year, same stuff, how do i get to myspace while at school, or how to get to facebook, Use you own computer at school and you have no problems. if using school computers, you are not allowed. But, most peeps do not care and they use this thing called proxy site.

I want a web browser that’s fast and reliable and looks good =]

i have Safari but it freezes and on some sites it acts up.

My vote if for Mozilla firefox 2.0 Mac version.

The tab function is more intelligent than Safari’s which only open tabs from clicks outside the browser. Clicks within the browser launches another window.

It also supports many more plugins including my favourite – FoxyTunes.

Not sure if such a feature exists on Safari, but in the event of a shutdown, Firefox gives you the option to return to where you were browsing previously.

When viewing normal websites with text and some graphics (no java, sounds, etc), which web browser uses the least system resources?

I like to watch movies while browsing the web, and when using IE sometimes it will cause the video to pause briefly or the sound to get out of sync for a few seconds…so am curious what windows browser would be the best to try.

Thanks!

The one I seen use the least ram was either IE or opera

About a week ago my web browsers stopped working(FireFox, and Internet Explorer) I know my internet works, because I can still connect fine to AOL Instant Messenger. But every time I try to get on FF or IE, it says its unable to connect, I’ve already tried disconnecting and reconnecting and restarting my computer. PLEASE Help D:
I’m asking this on a different computer

You need the Winsock fix. You can get it here http://bama.ua.edu/~recovery/Files/winsock-patch.exe

I need help switching back to IE. The thing popped up and i pressed something but mozilla is still my web browser. It’s been 2 days and the pop up thing that asks me is not popping up

Open internet explorer and click the tools menu, then Internet Options. You can also open control panell and double click Internet options.

Next click the programs tab. At the bottom, there is a checkbox for having internet explorer check if it is the default browser, CHECK it.

Next time you open internet explorer, it will ask you if you want it to be the default, click yes

Select which of the following best describes how Web browsers execute Javascript programs.
1. Javascript machine code is executed by the operating system at the request of the Web browser.
2.Compiled Javascript bytecodes are downloaded from a server along with a Web page and are executed without script interpretation by the Web browser.
3.Javascript code is interpreted by the Web browser.
4.None of the above.

3) The web browser implements an interpreter for JavaScript.

Script languages are not compiled either to machine language as with C/C++ or even bytecodes as with Java; they are interpreted, i.e., the straight text instructions are passed line-by-line to an interpreter.

Admittedly, the interpreted code is eventually run in a machine code form in an operation stack and memory address space associated with the browser, but your question included the phrase "best describes how Web browsers execute" – again, 3 is your answer.

Google "javascript interpreter" to get more than you ever wanted to know.

Im on enternet explorer right now, but I know theres other web browsers. but which one is better. which one is faster and responds better. please help thanks!!!

Google – Chrome

Personally, I haven’t tried this one. From what I know it’s an effective web browser.

Google are responsible for the search engine that revolutionized the internet, the popular Google Maps and have a highly recommended email service, Google Mail.

Apple – Safari

Recommended for good graphics. It’s a nice looking web browser that allows you to visually browse bookmarks and history, as well as ‘top sites’.

Apple also single handedly created competition for Microsoft in the computer industry, and designed the worlds most famous mp3 players and what is widely considered to be one of the better smartphones.

Mozilla – Firefox

Recommended because it has an intuitive user interface. It’s very easy to use and rich in features. It has plugins that allow for extra features. It is based on the original web browser, which historically was widely used while IE suffered – right up until IE was bundled with the Microsoft Windows.

Mozilla is non-profit organization and encourage donations. Their single greatest achievement is Firefox.

Reasons to use all of the above.

Uncluttered, fast web browsers. IE was never a good web browser and only gained popularity by being preinstalled on to Windows machines.

Conclusion

Which web browser you use is down to preference. Some people do try other web browsers and go back to IE, but the rest have a lot to recommend them. Try them out, and keep in mind that some web browsers are faster and more responsive when performing specific tasks.

Every time i hear these advertisements i remember hearing them or seeing them when my web browser is up but the next day or later on i hear it when nothing is up. Ive been hearing it for a few weeks now and really need help. I use Mozilla Firefox if that helps. Ive tried system restore but for some reason i cant restore my computer too (i don’t know if that’s another virus maybe?)

Try system restore again with different restore point.

Stop unwanted startup programs, some virus or other program may be running in background.
you can use CCleaner to stop unwanted startup programs, its free.
download it from http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/

I would like to block web users on Netscape Navigator from accessing my Web site. (I’ve seen web pages that have a "your browser is not supporter" block). Where can I get that code and/or how do I set it up?

The best way to do this is in your server script – that way users cannot bypass your javascript by switching javascript off.

The environment variable HTTP_USER_AGENT can be used in your script to detect the browser and you can return whatever page you like with no need for redirection.

This is example PHP of browser detection:

<?php
if ( strpos( $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], ‘Gecko’) )
{
if ( strpos( $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], ‘Netscape’) )
{
$browser = ‘Netscape (Gecko/Netscape)’;
}
else if ( strpos( $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], ‘Firefox’) )
{
$browser = ‘Mozilla Firefox (Gecko/Firefox)’;
}
else
{
$browser = ‘Mozilla (Gecko/Mozilla)’;
}
}
else if ( strpos( $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], ‘MSIE’) )
{
if ( strpos( $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], ‘Opera’) )
{
$browser = ‘Opera (MSIE/Opera/Compatible)’;
}
else
{
$browser = ‘Internet Explorer (MSIE/Compatible)’;
}
}
else
{
$browser = ‘Others browsers’;
}

echo $browser;
?>
