Not sure I want to know, now I remember the chaos IE caused before and I am now a firm fan of FF.
Sad that I turned out to be so fickle!

Waiting on some Gumbo (might make some tomorrow).

There speaks a true FireFox fan - no bias there at all, Donna?

Thanks -- guess I'll hold off 'til they speed it up some. If they get enough complaints they'll fix it (I guess). In these days of unlimited memory, programmers typically don't build efficient code until somebody sits on them. Far cry from when I used to have only 4K Bytes. 16K was as big as you could get. Probably gave away my age with that one but then I reckon I kind of fit your description, at least the body thoroughly used up part (starting the sideways slide I reckon); hopefully the slide will be a long one.

IE7 was spectacular but FF is much better in many, many ways I can't even describe.
Not in a hurry to do IE8 but will at some point...later.
Good luck. |

Sad that I turned out to be so fickle! | I am all for FrFx also Albert. ... Love many of the add-ons and the layout appeals to me more than IE. There are other reasons ... FrFx and all other open source software is a challenge to the Microsoft Empire which has ruled long enough without serious competition.
