I have used Internet Explorer for quite some time now and in the past few months, I was really starting to have  a problem with it hanging up, not loading java correctly and freezing up entirely. I was having to restart my computer more than I was wanting to.  Since I am a geek at heart, I was totally confused. Especially when I am  constantly using Spybot, CCleaner and Ad-Aware to remove spyware and other items that shouldn’t be on my computer. It also clears up temp files and other registry items that shouldn’t be there.  All these are free and really work great, easy to use and you might want to check them out for your own computer to keep it squeeky clean.  I have used them for a few years now and PC World also recommends them.

But even using the extra software, I was pulling my hair out with IE.  So, after some serious research, I switched to Firefox.  I haven’t looked back since!!  I just love my new browser.  It’s quicker, it loads everything that should be loaded, it’s more secure and I love the extra plugin’s that they offer.  I love the reminder and weather plugin.  Heck, I didn’t even know that there were pictures on the home page of DST until I switched over!  I was missing out on a lot.

So if your computer seems to be having major problems while you are surfing the net, try Firefox and see if this doesn’t make a difference for you too.

    Thanks for sharing! IE has been giving me problems I will run this by THE MAN and see if I can get approval. Maybe I should let him use teh computer every once in awhile so he can see what I mean. =)!

    That’s great, I’ve been thinking about trying firefox too. Haven’t had any prob. with IE so far, but will give it another thought, TFS

    Have a great day!

    Oh yes, I use those three programs as well. Not as often as I should, but enough to keep the problems at bay.
    Not sure if I’d take that giant jump to firefox though.
    However, you make it sound tempting!
    Have a happy New Year!

    I switched to Firefox last year and LOVE it!! Have you checked out the add on ‘Down Them All’? It’s fantastic! No more waiting for downloads to finish so I can start the next one. I just check them all and walk away!

    I agree – I just LOVE firefox – much better than anything else IMO!
