off topic but its what most of us are using to access this site whilst i blast out Aphex ive had problems browsing for a while ..when i try load up a page with a fair amount of pics and text using firefox or opera i get glitches and pops from my media players (vlc or wmp ect) and the mouse pinter gets a little sloppy too. but i just tried Internet explorer and wow every thing has fixed itself no slight pops or glitches i can scroll down a page before it has all loaded without problems. why? has my xp got a bug so i can only use IE? weird its like xp wont let me use anything else...without a headache. anyone experience this type o thing too? fweq x |

prolly the microsoft plan of making computers too shitty to run other browsers. since ie is a built in part of the windows os, it uses comparably less resources than third party browsers, hence the pops and glitches you speak of. its really too unfortunate ie is a terrible browser, what with being code bloated in its own right, no tabs (or terribly implemented at this point i assume, they were the last to get on the bandwagon), insecure and poor popup blocking last time i used it. |

Yea I wouldnt touch Firefox with a 10 foot pole. Firefox is buggy, uses way too much memory and is a magnet for viruses. I highly recommend using Internet Explorer 7 which is infinitely better than Firefox or any other browser for that matter. Link: |

I find my firefox slows down a bit when I have a ton of shit left completed in my download manager. Otherwise it's a ton better than IE. |

Prefer Firefox, more secure - but has its glitches. |

I switched to IE7 when Firefox started getting a bit slow and laggy. I haven't regretted it yet. |

Opera is ass. When you press update, it doesn't really update anything but the html-file. Any files that are included or linked (css-files, image-files, etc), you have to access directly (copy/paste URL to new tab) and update separately. This makes it even more ass for me, as the only times I use Opera is when I'm testing designs for browser compliance, which means I have to have a tab for each picture and each css file, and then I have to update it all, one by one. |

the mouse pointer and sound (built in AC97?, mine has issues too) getting sloppy problem could mean that there is something wrong with a (audio, mb chipset?)driver somewhere. You can also play with latency settings in the BIOS to see if it helps (remember the original settings though). more things to try: -change priority of audioplayer -increase buffersize in audiodriver -block stupid ads in firefox and Opera (put blocklist in urlfilter.ini) -check new Opera 9.5(still alpha though), it wins lots of speed benchmarks |

thanks guys.. not just me then. ( wish it was, then you'd all be o.k) but yeah i'l try IE7 ..im sure i saw one with tabs once ? yes i have to set the process priority of my media player (vlc.wmp) to high so the glitches go away...even then its not always perfect (ive got an expensive soundcard in there too) the main one for example is loading up my Ebay summary page with lots of watched items and bidding ect... its absolutely jerky as hell.. i have to wait a fair few seconds before its all calmed down. aswell with firefox ...i'll be watching an ebay item in a search to see the price rise viia bids...but ...even if i update /refresh the page , the numbers/£,$ hang and dont update, im given false info (old information) i have to individually go into each item to be sure of a price. its fkd up. ARRGGGgggg I really hate computers ...im constantly on them and have been for freaking years ...yet i cant get my browser to work. hahahaha hahahahaahhaaahahaa merry easter fweqy x |

I use Opera and it's the best out the package browser no need to install 3rd party plugins, Drunken Mastah learn how to use Opera you don't need to it manually like a monkey "Reload from cache" and hit F5, Opera without a doubt is the best thing to come out of Norway apart from cod fish. |
