A Better Browser?
Hi all..
I have been using Windows ME for about 4 years now without a problem and like it alot.. but I'd like to use a different browser besides Internet Explorer. I seem to get lots of error msgs on it now.. and more recently an "Operation Aborted" message, even during something simple like going to Google. I was wondering what is good browser to use with Windows ME? Someone told me Opera, then someone told me FireFox, but I dont want to start installing all kinds of stuff then have problems later on or conflicts with other programs. I also saw one called "Avant", I've never heard of it before and was wondering also if anyone knew anything about it? Thanks in advance for all of your help. Tarcia |

The constant "nagging" can be turned off by removing the check in the
"default web browser" box located here - IE = Tools Internet Options Programs Tab FF = Tools Options Main Opera = Tools Preferences Advanced Programs SM should be the same as FF. -- _ct_ N.

Other than browser updates nagging me to make them the default browser if the updated browser is not default. |

If I knew for sure, I would have said "SM is the same as FF", but I'm glad
to have pointed you in the right direction so you're able to locate it. -- _ct_ N. Miller wrote: On Sat, 11 Aug 2007 13:22:00 -0400, ctowers wrote: SM should be the same as FF. Do you think? Or do you know? I know; they are *NOT* the same. Similar, yes, but not the same. You might look closely at the menu layout between the two, including where you have to go for configuring the browser options. SeaMonkey: Edit Preferences... FireFox: Tools Options... |

Eh? That makes no sense. I *already* knew they were different. I suspect it is more like you conning me into doing your research for you. Research for what? I was responding to your "nagging me" complaint. You must be confusing me with the OP. -- _ct_ |
