explorer 6 /Netscape 6.1
« on: October 09, 2001, 11:57:00 AM »
does anyone use these browsers?

if you do how do you find their performance?

would you recommend upgrading?

I am curious only b/c i just have gotten my browsers to function correctly; Some of the sites i visit have now enacted new standards that only allow you to see the content and not the layout of the site. thus the question about the upgrade. any feedback would be helpful.

I use IE 6.. I wouldn't recommend it until it's more commonplace though.

So far it's typical IE. The part where it breaks Quicktime right away is a nice touch as well.

I usually keep updated just because I am an updating kind of guy.

Nutscrape 6.1 is a nice upgrade from the older versions I was using (used 4.71, 4.73, 4.77). I also use Internet Exploder on occasion but I prefer the way 6.1 loads up and I like it's Messenger mailbox better than anything else.

I don't use either myself. I got the free Opera 5.0 and haven't felt the need to get rid of it. (MSIE always gave sites too much power (especially with its JS implementation) and NN always seemed bulky onscreen and awkward in some respects.)

Unfortunately the QT plug-ins break with the same frequency under Opera as with MSIE.

Pacman - Nice logo, BTW - Can MSIE 6.0 identify as another browser? I ask because I had to do that in order to upload to the UG - luckily no big deal for Opera.
