Browser speed

Postby Gizzit » Sat Jan 17, 2004 12:43 pm

I have been having some issues with Internet Explorer recently which has made browsing the forum a bit of a slow pain. I have been running IE5.5 and tried to install IE6 with no joy (it kept telling me it was unable to install all components and terminated the install). Won't bore you with what I tried in order to fix it but tried loads of things.

Anyway, in frustration, I have installed Netscape Navigator 7.1. What a difference! The last time I used Netscape (V4 I think) I was not too impressed. V7.1 is a completely different animal altogether. Sleek, easy to use and FAST!

So, if you are having issues with your browsing speed, give Netscape a go. It is a free download from Netscape.com and I am definately impresed :thumbsup)

Netscape has always been a better browser - with the exception of perhaps V6 which didn't do it for me :( I run IE 5.00 simply because I can't be arsed to wait three weeks to download another browser, but once I get broadband, IE will get kicked off as the main browser :)

Sorry BA but I ain't got time to wait for whatever they were to download and get their perky nipple things bouncing away, but if I do get time to dowload the pic of that massive pair of titz which you posted I will, but somehow I can't see me having the time to spend waiting :P

Oh, and for the record, I didn't have time to wait for those massive titz that BH posted on another thread either, so I suppose I ought to try and make the time to do that too and just bear the pain of a slow download :D

Can you folks come up with some decent titz though - these big ones take too long to download :mrgreen:
