The Death of Mozilla Firefox

  • Reading this thread I have downloaded chrome to see what's it about. Well I had a look at the add ons so I thought have a go at the radio player. Note comes up stating this add on can watch all you are doing on the web, so have not installed it. Oh it's going to mean logging in to every site. I am used to Firefox so why change unless I am forced.

    I moved to Opera when I started having problems with Firefox locking up all the time,since then no problems with Opera & I'd say it beats other browsers hands down.

    I did exactly the same and am getting to like Opera after trying Maxthon3, Chrome and the Comodo Dragon version of Chrome. Opera doesn't seem to be particularly fast - but reliability is more important to me.

    I just upgraded to the latest one tonight & it's lightning fast compared to the previous release.

    I uses firefox on pc and chrome on netbook. Prefer firefox any day due to its plugins. I think its demise is premature

    A lot of people don't realise that Opera has loads of plug-ins available for it too :)
