F'n IE CRAP!
| Message Board > Controversy and Quarantine > F'n IE CRAP! |
| Sati User Info... | Is anyone else having trouble with everything in IE? I have to keep a different browser window open because I soemtimes have to log on using different accounts to check things, and ie makes me furious. Why can't I block and copy text like I used to? why, when i post a message, or send a gmail message, does all my vertical spacing disappear? total crap. i listened to nev on a big rant the other day about ms bs and i thought it was funny cuz it wasn't affecting me, but now I understand. Apparently tons of man hours have been spent on our servers & sites fixing stuff to accomodate their crap. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR - Sat, 20 Dec 2008 4:06pm Edited: Sat, 20 Dec 2008 4:06pm | ||
| Mr. Hell User Info... | This is quite controversial. - Sat, 20 Dec 2008 4:09pm | ||
| ROSS B AY User Info... | I think this crap should be quarantined. - Sat, 20 Dec 2008 5:29pm | ||
| Chopper User Info... | Switched to firefox years ago, and haven't looked back. IE is craptastic. - Sat, 20 Dec 2008 5:32pm | ||
| KRIEG User Info... | ^ Quite right. Made the switch to Firefox a while back and have had no problems. Internet Explorer is for gay anarchists and DAJ supporters. - Sat, 20 Dec 2008 6:17pm | ||
| Sati User Info... | I put my rants in c&q cuz i'm too lazy to log in to live vic, just to start a crummy thread. I also do it because I CAN. i use firefox but need an alternate browser. Our stats say some of you use safari so i'll maybe try that one. i can't understand how they can mess up the simplest things - cut & pasting and spacing?

| Doc User Info... | If you use firefox why do you need an alternate browser? The only thing that I use IE for is checking my hotmail account. Other than that, I haven't found anything that firefox won't do for me. ~Keeping the world safe from democracy. Doc - Sat, 20 Dec 2008 7:11pm | ||
| Sati User Info... | I need to log into the sites under different user accounts (that have different privileges). Tabs don't cut it - they get all gibbled up. I still should be checking stuff in ie too, because so many people are still slumming with it. - Sat, 20 Dec 2008 7:34pm | ||
| Doc User Info... | I don't know if this helps at all, but you can configure Firefox to open links so that they bring up new windows instead of tabs. ~Bill Gates is going to take over the world! Be afraid! Doc - Sun, 21 Dec 2008 3:15am | ||
| Hearse User Info... | The whole point of using FireFox is to customize it using Add-Ons and to a more difficult extent, about:config Anyhoo, here's how you can do what you want without ever loading IE itself: CookieSwap, to have multiple accounts open: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3255 IE Tab, open IE in FireFox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1419 ------------ You can thank me by never using IE again. - Sun, 21 Dec 2008 10:23am | ||
| Sati User Info... | * falls to her knees and bows deeply * Everyone, please respect and honour this live vic entity as he posts among us. I can't get it to work yet, but I'll trust that it will. And I'll share it with Nev. - Sun, 21 Dec 2008 12:26pm | ||
| Hearse User Info... | Let me know if you're having trouble with those - they're working great over here. - Sat, 27 Dec 2008 9:33am | ||
| Sati User Info... | Thanks! I haven't tried the ie within firefox one yet, but the other one works fine, except that with every switch it bumps me out of gmail (which is open in another tab). I'll make some time to play some more... soon. - Sat, 3 Jan 2009 12:13pm | ||
