Guest guest Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 I loved my former Mozilla Firefox Browser as it more or less corrects one's spelling as one types. But, this time, AGAIN, battle Internet Explorer vs. Firefox waged on, and Firefox LOST, with the result of my odd spelling/typing. Love to you, Sharon, Anne, and our group!

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007  Good Morning M A R I O N..not n, Hi. We HAD to switch from IE to Mozilla Foxfire, because Internet Explorer was literally inoperative. I mean it would freeze and not 'search', 'surf', 'retrieve' or 'serve' in any way, shape or form. Truly maddening! My dtr., Lia, had always sworn by Mozilla, and now I have to completely agree with her. We had also used Netscape for sometime also, but that was quite slow. Time for my SECOND cup O joe!

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 I first switched to Firefox because I couldn't get into my bank online. The bank had just done a security upgrade and I could not access my account. After being on the phone with the bank technical guy for nearly an hour trying all sorts of settings he finally told me to download the free Firefox. After getting Firefox I was able to log on to my bank info. The tech said the new security upgrade wasn't compatible with the lower security levels on IE, or something like that. At first I only used Firefox when I needed to log onto the bank but soon I decided I liked it. I'm slow to accept change sometimes I guess.hugs))Sharon This email is a natural hand made product. The slight variations in spelling and grammar enhance its individual character and beauty and in no way are to be considered flaws or defects. Re: Welcome to all new members!/my strange SPELLING You may or may not get used to the terrible typing.I think that part of why it is so bad now is that mybeloved Firefox browser was ABUSED by Internet Explorer 7!Herkimer II feels that this should be reported. Also thereis some sort of strange problem with the font, such that German diacritical markings keep appearing above the vowels,and the darned thing IS set for English--sorry about all this!more love, frommore n Never miss a thing.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Thats ok. Thanks! I really want a regular computer. We have a local connection for the laptop. We really never have went completly wireless with it. My bros friend cousin supposedly went online with it. I said screw it. Not worth it. Next time we get a computer it better be brand new.The laptop we have had we bought off my uncle 3 yrs.ago. And he had programed the things we would need and wanted so it was easier.lol.
