thought i'd try firefox, doesn't seem faster but it is simpler, however it uses more resources than IE.
firefox reports 26,000k mem usage while IE reports 14,000k mem usage. I thought firefox was supposed to be more efficient and compact. any other benefits or drawbacks? is it safer or more resistant to attacks etc? |

I just did Brando's changes. What should I look for as far as a difference? It all seems the same to me..
On a related subject. Has anyone else had the problem of firefox.exe not unloading after you exit? On my home machine I notice sometimes when I try to shut down it throws up a dialog reporting that firefox.exe won't exit. If I look at the processes running sometimes there will be three or four firefox.exe's! |
