Internet Explorer vs. Firefox
Just upgraded to IE8, but I have to say Firefox 3 is still much better and faster. Any one out there with a view on this?

…… and now we have Safari 4 coming up as well. I’m sure our readers will be interested to hear your thoughts.
As we have seen, many website do not display correctly under all browsers. In fact in some cases they do not even function properly to the extent that links and sub-pages just cannot be accessed. So it’s a good idea to install several browsers and use whichever one works best for the sites you are accessing.

Hi Mike, I have been using IE8 and I much prefer it to previous versions. I love the Accelerators which allow you to translate, search, define etc. at the click of a button.
Firefox 3 is, however, much more customisable with lots of add-ons, themes etc. you can find them at Firefox Add-ons.
My personal favourite is Google Chrome which is very fast and easy to use but doesn’t work with all websites yet.
