    yeah, it's kind of a drag that html gets parsed in different ways by different apps. i like safari on the mac, but it can't deal with some sites... or even my router's web management... thing.

    One of the first extensions I got for Firefox is one that adds an option to open a link with IE.

    The reduced amount of popup ads is what made me start using Firefox. I have noticed that there are getting to be more and more that get through though.

    Noticed the same thing lately. Not as bad as IE but it won't be long I'm afraid.

    Has anyone used Opera? I hear it's pretty good... up until a few days ago you had to purchase it but I believe it is free now.

    I don't have a popup problem at all with MSN9. Once in a blue moon one'll get through.

    That's my choice, I like it a lot. You've got to pay or come across the paid version if you do not want to see advertisements. It's my favorite.
