[11:42:13 pm] <+kiwibonga> Clicking on the link, I was taken to a web page that required ActiveX. As a FireFox user, I am protected from the security threat that is ActiveX, and was therefore unable to run their uninstall utility.
[11:42:17 pm] <+kiwibonga> fucking gay firefox whiner
[11:42:20 pm] <+kiwibonga> opinion dismissed
[11:44:08 pm] <arun> ROFL kiwibonga, you use IE?
[11:44:14 pm] <+kiwibonga> yeah...
[11:44:22 pm] <+kiwibonga> why would I use anything else?
[11:44:32 pm] <arun> ROFL
[11:44:44 pm] <arun> ROFLROFL lol I'm sorry I just haven't met a dumbass in quite a while
[11:44:52 pm] <+kiwibonga> see, he's a firefox zombie
[11:45:00 pm] <+kiwibonga> he's gonna tell me that I'm not respecting standards
[11:45:05 pm] <+kiwibonga> that I'm getting spyware
[11:45:09 pm] <+kiwibonga> and that I suck MS's cock
[11:45:15 pm] <+kiwibonga> all three are not true
[11:45:20 pm] <arun> Hah, but you don't have tabs.
[11:45:21 pm] <arun> :P
[11:45:28 pm] <+kiwibonga> I have the fucking windows taskbar
[11:45:31 pm] <+kiwibonga> god damn it
[11:45:38 pm] <@feerie> you can get tabs
[11:45:40 pm] <+kiwibonga> stop inventing dumb reasons to use shitty browsers
[11:45:43 pm] <@feerie> just install MSN desktop search
[11:45:48 pm] <+kiwibonga> tabs are useless if you have a windows taskbar
[11:45:56 pm] <arun> Maybe you don't like having your taskbar cluttered with windows that you forgot about?
[11:45:59 pm] <arun> No, they aren't.
[11:46:16 pm] <+kiwibonga> I usually have between 3 and 20 of those windows open
[11:46:23 pm] <arun> Nooby
[11:46:28 pm] <+kiwibonga> the point is I can get to them fast with the taskbar, regardless of the program I'm in
[11:46:41 pm] <arun> Eff running a program in 20 windows. I'd rather programs be run under one window.
[11:46:43 pm] <+kiwibonga> with tabs I'd have to switch to the browser and then go into the tab I want
[11:46:48 pm] <arun> Cry.
[11:46:49 pm] <+kiwibonga> so I prefer the taskbar indeed
[11:47:22 pm] <+kiwibonga> your opinion on tabbed browsing does not explain why I am a dumbass who should be using firefox
~~ topic gets avoided, I am victorious ~~
Haha. Shove firefox up the seventh planet from the sun.

Yes, because the browser debate is all about tabs these days... =/
Fuck you all, I'll browse with Lynx or my PSP from now on.
Netscape 7.2 beats all you bitches.
tabs are awesome but they're hardly unique to firefox and IMO are the least of the reasons why projects like firefox kick IE's virtual ass all over the place. some more important ones:
- open-source project: so you can examine the source, make changes if you wish, create parallel projects (as with MAME for example) and generally feel happy that a community has created your tool instead of a corporation. because instead of money being the primary motivation behind the product you're using, functionality is.
- lower profile: IE is by far the most popular browser and by extension the most-targetted. just because you haven't gotten malware yet is no proof that IE is safer- it's much more likely a reflection of your browsing tendencies. but put IE and FF side-by-side through a gamut of dangerous sites and IE is the one that will show the greater vulnerability. not necessarily IE's fault, but a case of the old german saying "no pity for the majority" ("neine mitleid fuer die merit" or something)
- software extensions: a robust, systematic and facile method of adding custom functionality. and just another example of community involvement and easy-to-use open-source nature. the power you have with extensions is equal or greater to the expandability of any other product i've ever seen.
- the simple fact that you're not using a product designed by MS$, presided over by one of the world's most ruthless, clever scam-artists. of course if you believe in capitalism and free-enterprise then you really have to take your hat off to the guy. but if you understand how he got where he is and have a conscience then you just might not wanna have anything to do with him.
i use IE cause i'm to lazy to do firefox....firefox zombies sux

I'd agree with that if I could get extensions for Opera. My Final Fantasy XI clock (Gives me the exact time ingame, very useful for crafting and some quests) and my iTunes controller are too sexy of extensions to abandon.
I only say eff/effing cause "fuk" looks retarded on Gunbound. >_>
Personally, what browser one uses is ultimately up to the individual's choice. I agree with kiwi on the point that the people he was having a 'civil conversation' with were pretty foolish.
Firefox may be 'safe' now. But with the number of people using it increasing, there's bound to be an exploit that some people will take advantage of... soon.
undoubtedly. yet it will still have a long way to go before it's as heavily-targetted as IE.
actually IIRC at least two of the last five FF updates have been made to address potential security holes.

True, but the thing with open source projects is that they're updated often to fix such exploits.
Whatever the case, i still love firefox! No idea why but my firefox loads significantly faster than IE these days. :happy:
I have NEVER used the tabs on Firefox, seems like a waste of time when I have my own taskbar. <_<
I use Firefox because I've become accustomed to it. It loads faster (i have broadband :P) and plus my internet explorer got screwed up, thus the reason i switched to firefox in the first place.
Firefox Zombie! :dualevil2:

Same here. I've never used the 'tabs' function at all. Only problems i have with FF is that sometimes the plugins dont work well (esp. some websites use weird fonts or some other stuff, it just messes FF up but IE is okay with them). Someone around here mentioned Quicktime plugins dont work with FF well IIRC?
Quicktime plugins work fine. You just have to install Quicktime while Firefox is installed so it sees it.
As for tabs, I've stopped using new windows just about since my taskbar is cluttered a majority of the time.
Here, its a Gunbound site, and it is also related to this thread, so why not..
(http://beaversports.org/gb/Stuff%20for%20windows/Background/FFGG.bmp)
Ironic since the GB page isn't really firefox compliant ;p
And uh, I just noticed the reason I don't have trouble with the taskbar is because mine has 3 rows... Very hard to clutter ;p
There is Tabbed msn for Tabbing zombies lol, if anyone want it i will post it.
Fast Q: If i wanna post some useful programs with screenshots and Descprtions what section should i post ?
Most likely here since alot of the forums from the old board are still missing.
None of the public forums should be missing...
Sorry. That was my mistake. I overlooked the drop down button of alot of sections. :x
Firefox is so damn overrated..."Hey I can have 10 sites open in one window."
