| | Opera a disappointment I switched to Opera a while back and thought that looks-wise it was an awesome, sleek browser. A bit slower than other browsers but no biggie. Plus the included mailclient was a nice touch. Mainly I liked the look of it though. I noticed, however, that many times it wouldn't download certain files; patricularly .exe and zip files. That's a damn shame. Now I have to switch back to 'Plain Jane' Internet Explorer. Not really a question... more of a rant. Ta for the ear. |

| | Maybe there's settings one can change... dunno... not very straight forward so I'm not bothering. Back on IE now anyhow. |

| | Chrome is liked by many members. Stories that it is not compatible with some websites is highly exaggerated. There is an add-on, too which overcomes that shortfall. |

| | Internet explorer isn't really that bad a browser =). In my experience, the pages load just as quickly in internet explorer as in other browsers. I also use google chrome and find that it is only minutely faster. I don't see what the big deal is with such little to compare in real world performance, not some javascript test, or acid3, sunspider, etc. |

| | I tried Opera but it seemed very slow, also the turbo feature didn't help at all it made images on Deviantart look really awful but was strangely slower to load these pages. |
