Which browser for Vista?

lonestarfan

Grandma has a dell computer. It has Vista on it. I've just been using it this morning and it says update the browser. I can't seem to view some websites very well and saw that message. What browser can Vista support? I don't want to spend time trying to download and update etc when it won't work due to Vista being old. Thanks.

Although Firefox does currently support Vista, it looks like that will only last until September.

Google Chrome hasn't supported Vista since April.

slimjet , very much like ie in use , favorites down left etc , use ver 10 on vista http://www.slimjet.com/en/dlpage.php

SeaMonkey still runs on Vista and it's a good browser.

I'd also advise your gran to move to at least Windows 7 as after this coming April there'll be no further updates for Vista.

Nobody needs to be running Vista, which has always been a rubbish OS - time to move on!

rubbish is in the eyes of the beholder

I know several members of a well known mental institute that rate vista highly

Thanks. Will use another browser now and sort out an upgrade to 8.

Don't go for 8/8.1 either go for 7 or 10

OP if you are going to download anything, download a Win 7 ISO from Microsoft here

and buy a legitimate product key for less than £5 e.g. here

Vista support 3 months

Win 7 support 3 years

No brainer!
