Browser Type

Currently we use MS Explorer as our browser and we were thinking about moving to Mozilla and wanted to know your experiences of the applications and which one is better.

Re: Browser Type

Here are some reasons you may want to use something other than IE:

“Best of 2003“ —PCWORLD

“Mozilla is the best free alternative to Microsoft IE and it's faster to boot.“
—Rex Baldazo, C|Net

NavigatorTabbed browsing gives you a better way to surf the net. You no longer have to open one page at a time. With tabbed browsing, open several pages at once with one click. And now your homepage can be multiple tabbed pages.

Popup blocker lets you surf the web without intrusion. Advanced popup blocker notifies you when popups are blocked. You can also block pop-ups on a site per site basis.

Image Manager lets you block images to block offensive images or to speed up the rendering of web sites.

Find as you type gives you another way to navigate a page. Just start typing to jump from link to link or to find a word or phrase within a page.

Plus all the features a modern browser should have including: Advanced security settings; Password, Download, and Cookie managers; Themes; multi-language and multi-platform support; and, the latest in Web Standards.

Mail & Newsgroups
Junk mail controls helps you take back control of your e-mail from spammers. Mozilla's adaptive junk mail control gets smarter with use and is personalized to the e-mail that you receive.

Manage your mail with customizable Labels and Mail Views. Color code your e-mail to help you prioritize. Sort your mail with views to help you through your e-mail much faster.

Mozilla supports Multiple Accounts to help you manage all your mail through one interface.

Mozilla Messenger includes Enterprise ready features such as S/MIME, return receipts, LDAP support, and digital signing.

ComposerMozilla's HTML editor keeps getting better with dynamic image and table resizing, quick insert and delete of table cells, improved CSS support, and support for positioned layers. For all your simple documents and website projects, Composer is all you need.

Re: Browser Type

Actually IE7 has most of the features the other browsers have, including tabbed browsing, RSS reader, etc.

The main weak point of IE7 is the time that is necessary to load, the first time immediately after the PC is switched ON.

The main IE7 strong point compareing to the other browsers, is that it reads most of the web pages properly. It is very common one or another web site layout to be not shown correctly in Opera or Firefox.
