Hey i'll be glad to help out, i already know what to do, i'll take the screen caps and that bit and i'll try getting the urls from them i i find any.

I've got web developer for I.E. and it seems to work fine, and if all else fails i'll dig it out with my html editors.

Where are you getting most of the popups?

[quote="Falconlobo"]well excuse me but i am not getting firefox

i've heard there are so many problems with it and

i only did what my computer is able to do ^^[/quote]

There is nothing wrong with Firefox. It's the best browser there is, and one of the top overall downloads for the past few years.

. . . . Well, it [b]shouldn't[/b] do that. I don't know what the problems are originating from. It could be an I.E. pop-up that caused FireFox to malfunction....? I don't really know. I have had no pop-ups, spyware, malware, internet hijacking, or viruses from FireFox. Confused

Maybe they just got viruses?

Firefox has its own built in pop up blocker. And it doesn't [i]give[/i] it's own pop ups. That thing about switching over to view fac is a lie. Or a misunderstanding.

Bottom line is IE isn't the best browser to use.

If you won't believe us, the read these and at least consider the choice of the experts' and people just like you.

And other websites say Opera is the best, and even Safari is better than IE

I think what falcons talking about is the ad that comes along about the very first time(s) you use this site that says its better veiwed by firefox.

and before we get back on topic, i've been using it for a while testing some different things of my own and i've got no problems at all, the only reason i don't use it often is because my computer sucks so bad with its pentium 3, 933Mhz, processor that it has a hard time with many of my programs, and firefox just seems to be one of them Evil or Very Mad

cstdenis · Posted: Wed May 23, 2007 9:23 pm Post subject:

That fac ad was only temporary for a few days to help raise funds (and as a public service to get more people away from IE).

If you insist on using IE, at least switch to the crappy IE7. Its still full of security holes and rendering bugs, but its not the swiss cheese of IE6.

Falconlobo · Posted: Wed May 23, 2007 9:37 pm Post subject:

why would i trade up to that people hate it

i've heard numerous complaints about it~~

oh and if i went up to a different crappy system why not Windows Vista

which i hear is worse~~

Who are these people you keep "hearing" this crap from? Or rather... why do you keep listening?
