i dont really see any benefit to using it. infact on some sites it seems to screw up the graphics.  
i just think a lot of people that want you to think they know a lot about computers use it so they can bad mouth IE and feel like they have some edge on the average user.

I like firefox mainly because it loads pages faster, displays (most) pages better/more accurately, plus their add-ons are great (NoScript, GMail notifier, etc.).

I disagree.

[www.puritanboard.com/forum/](http://www.puritanboard.com/forum/)

Unless they switched servers and operating software, open it in IE, and then FF. There is a good 10 seconds difference in load-time… consistently.

what are you talking about exactly? i’m not going to argue with you… a website is a website is a website… browsers only display websites and caches files… the limiting factor is the speed of each sides connections.

The time it (used to) take to load that main page was 15 - 20 seconds. To load the same page in FF, took a fraction of a second.

I never had a problem with him, but apparently he wanted to have words with me because I was dancing with his wife at the Pinks party. Jeff talked him out of it I heard.

Sorry again man.
