Thanks

    Google Chrome - now release quality and pretty good IMHO
  • What exactly do you mean by "in conjunction with"?

    There's one called Opera which is worth a look.

    I use Chrome too and its great... I actually prefer it to Firefox except I love Foxmarks and Sage on Firefox.

    Thanks folks will have a little gander at them now, what I mean by "in tandem" is to have windows open in both at the same time without creating conflicts with each other. I have stopped using ie due to the recent problem so need to replace with an alternative. Downloading chrome now will give it a whirl.

    Chrome up and running, on first sight it's looking rather good thanks folks, I'll put it to a proper test later this evening.

  • Safari is also good, Chrome is based on the same engine, but I just cant say no to Apple's quality design on Safari

    Why is ti you want to have 2 browsers running in tandem
  • I would just open another tab in firefox. Unless you're logging in to the same site or something...

    Last night's patch fixed the IE7 problem. Personally I use IE7 as my default and also use Firefox and Opera. Only reason to use separate ones is for keeping cookies separate such as using one specificaly for cashback (i.e. I use Firefox exclusively for Quidco and online purchases through it). If you need more than one page open then that's what tabs are for and you can have multiple instances of the same browser open anyway.
