Finally, here is an article from Cnet that compares the two in several different areas.Please read the whole thing. http://www.cnet.com.au/software/internet/0,239029524,339271935,00.htm and then download firefox www.getfirefox.com and get the Fasterfox add on. http://fasterfox.mozdev.org/ after installing both, when you run FF, you will see a small fox symbol on the right bottom of your screen right click it,click on options this will open a window with presets...click on either Optomized or Turbo-Charged. Some people have problems with Turbo, but I've had FF for about a year now and have no prob. with it set to turbo. Then open the same window again, click on the fasterfox tab, and make sure that Advanced Prefetching is NOT turned on. It shouldn't be anyway, but just make sure. Then sit back, use FF and smile at how fast it is! Oh btw, IF you have dial up...FF won't be any faster than IE, but I still would use it because I like it so much. |
