Guest areacode212 Posted March 16, 2002 Report Posted March 16, 2002 So, I'm guessing most of you are using some form of IE. I'm using IE 5.5, but it has some annoying bugs. Is it worth upgrading to 6.0? Download.com has a bunch of pretty negative reviews of it. And is anyone using Opera?
Guest DrTom Posted March 17, 2002 Report Posted March 17, 2002 I like IE 6.0. I ran it with Win2000, and now with XP. There's nothing wrong with 5.5, I guess, but I think 6.0 is a better browser. As always, make sure you keep up with the security patches. I used Opera before and thought it was good. Definitely faster than IE 5.5, though it's probably about even with 6.0. It blows any version of Netscrape away, though.
Guest admin Posted March 17, 2002 Report Posted March 17, 2002 I personally have found that IE 5.5 sp2 is the quickest and most reliable. although on newer systems ie 6.0 may be more optimized.
Guest Posted March 19, 2002 Report Posted March 19, 2002 I am running IE 6.0 on Windows XP Professional. IE 6.0 is a better browser then 5.5. Seems to be a bit more stable and handles scripts a little better. -Ov3rClock
Guest hardyz1 Posted March 19, 2002 Report Posted March 19, 2002 I'm using IE6 and the newest version of Opera. I DLed and installed IE6 a few days ago from Microsoft's site, and it crashes when I go to certain sites everytime I go to those sites. So I downloaded Opera. I like them both, but I'm on IE now.
Guest starvenger Posted March 19, 2002 Report Posted March 19, 2002 I'm using IE 6.0, but it sometimes bugs out on some javascripts. Overall, better than 5.5, but with a new set of bugs to replace the old ones - as is the standard for MS upgrades. I've been trying Netscape 6 as well, and it's not bad - nice to see that they're back on track after badly dropping the ball with NS 4.
Guest dreamer420 Posted March 19, 2002 Report Posted March 19, 2002 I use IE 6.0 and haven't seen a problem with it yet. I'm not really a Netscape fan, and 6.0 is the crappiest and slowest browser known to man.
Guest Posted March 25, 2002 Report Posted March 25, 2002 I use IE 6 and its cool. The only thing that sucks it always tries to debug pages for some reason and coems up with this list of nonsense characerts.
