Since this folder is fresh and new, time to bring light to the webs best browser, or at least in my humble opinion.

Mozilla suite has just been updated to version 1.7, runs solid as a rock.

And, if you are looking for something fast and smaller in size, try the Firefox browser, now at version 0.9.

Can't beat it, and the pop-up blocker built in works great!

i personally like FireFox and Thunderbird seperate...i dont know why though

funny you mention that.
I just switched to Firefox 0.9 and Thunderbird 0.7 and they are sweet!

If you are using Firefox, check out this Extension, called AdBlock

You can even train it to get rid of those damn Flash ads.

I am having a problem with Firefox. I goto www.windowsupdate.com and i cannot get it to show up, where as, it shows up in Internet exploder. Any Ideas?

Sure, WindowsUpdate only work in IE due to the ActiveX controls.
ActiveX is not in Mozilla or Firefox.

I was gonna say that, but I thought it was too obvious.

well, you never know.
Moz has no plans either in developing AciveX into its browsers either last I heard.

You don't think that would hurt them in the long run?

No, I don't think it would put a dent in the project. IE comes with it, and if someone feels the need to do a Win Update IE is right there to handle the OS requirements.

I do stand corrected though about Moz research in it.

Not sure if this would allow WinUpdate functionality though.

I love Mozilla its the best IMO.

Good to hear!!

You use Moz or Firefox?

if Moz/Firefox added ActiveX functionality, that would make it vulnerable to the same spywares that plague IE?

also wanted to add that Firefox is up to 0.9.2 now.

I would assume if they added it, it would be a module that can be enabled or disabled, same as Java. You can disable Java in Moz if you want to.

As do I =)
