Firefox Campaign

Support xltronic by using the download link to the left for
Firefox...

Costs you nothing, you can even uninstall Firefox if you're
not happy with it......

Will run the campaign for a week or so.........

Do you prefer IE or FF btw?

Our stats are actually showing that 60% of xltronic visitors
are using Firefox......

But get the latest version from the button to the left..

firefox is rawk!

..does this mean you've encountered a ff/ie problem with v2?
I know quite a few hacks that will not only leave the site
validating, but are even recommended for different
situations where IE renders stuff completely off the
charts...

ive used firefox for a few years and def. prefer it to any
other browser (for pc that is)

safari is by far and away the best browser on the planet

firefox, however, is really unstable and has some annoying
bugs, but the TABS (!!!) and other features make it the best
choice by far

yay for firefox

well, I already have firefox, but would it help the site if
I downloaded and installed it from that link? wouldn't it be
enough if I downloaded it or something?

ff is my backup browser, but it's a bit sluggy compared to
safari.

I use Safari for osx, sometimes when I click a link on xlt
it causes safari to crash. This is the only website that it
ever happens with.

Is it something worth looking at?

university here switch both their linux worstation system to
unix and their browsers to firefox.. officially.

I don't see it either, but that's because I'm on ff, and I
have adblock installed. it probably has one of those
"bannerad" or something thingies that I've blocked every
occurence of with wildcards and shit and shit and stuff and
shit.

I was still using IE because it has that google toolbar
which is very useful for me (good translator, nothing popup
etc). I didn't know you could use the google toolbar with
Firefox too, and that's the reason why I wasn't using FF
yet. I've just downloaded it anyway, I'll try to install it
now...

I never got what that's for.. it doesn't offer anything
new...

oh, I'll just uninstall it again...

hmm.. well, I'm not into that

also, it just seems to have a second quick search bar and
more bookmarks... it just seems meaningless to have it
there...

Yah, two of the biggest things that made the google toolbar
cool on IE was it's pop-up blocking and integrated google
search. It doesn't make quite as much sense on Firefox.

I installed it and discovered the feature for translating
words by hovering over them which is useful for helping me
with my rubbish Spanish, so thanks to everyone involved in
this great project.

Safari got really sluggish on me a few months ago so I
scrapped it. Email and MSN links always send to Safari still
which is annoying, I don't know how to change it.

I use Camino, Firefox is the same peeps as Camino but I
can't see an advantage in switching cause I'll have to make
it learn all my passwords and stuff again
