Firefox vs Internet Explorer

Featured Replies

the buttons all looks same to me. i just stick with the default.

my mouse has all the back/fwd/and rfsh buttons, so I dont even take the time to look at the buttons on the toolbar. (just too damn lazy to move the mouse all the way over to that part of the screen to click on the damned "back" button) :)

if u press backspace then it will go back in the browser. (surely everyone knows that by now)

I prefer Alt + <--

Wow, the Find feature is revamped!

I also like the new "secure website" feature. It's makes it more evident that a website is verified.

I have to point this out! ARG ARG!!! FIREFOX is not slower than IE, IE its self takes up more processes than firefox w/ all its extensions.

Which makes IE slower.

 

Estimate

IE: 30,000k

FF: 20:000k w/ extensions

 

Thank You

Does anyone have a problem here with Firefox using up alot of resources ?

the other day it used 80k paging file memory but the process was not 100% ,

IE uses less memory but I prefer firefox because it is better looking and it downloads the page before it opens up in the new window.

well if you have many add-ons running it will cause it to go slower

 

also, that may be peak useage as opposed to current useage. so "mem useage" is what you want "peak mem useage" is the max memory it has ever used;

view > select columns

and you can customise yourself from there if it is the wrong way round.

 

or it could be that your computer cannot handle it! dont know why and its unlikely but still a possibility.

Hey thanks ,

I rust relized that ( addins 'extensions ' )

:)

It takes a few hours to get used to, but then it takes all of 0.2 seconds per command without moving your hand from your mouse. I'm so used to it now that I try to use it in normal windows sometimes by accident. :)

Verusamore something that you are forgetting is the fact that IExplorer is some sort of fork of the already loaded explorer.exe (the shell not the program). so, it may show less memory because it uses shared loaded things.

so suck it MUHAHAHA... na just kidding. happy beeps.
