Hey guys.. any of you having to log back in continuously? I have had to log myself back in 5 times in the past 5 mins. I checked the server connection here in the lab, its fine... so is someting up with the board? Hmm? Or is it just me, since my comp skills are pretty good, but limited...

I use Netscape for my email and IE for the internet...maybe it's just my 'cheap -- not all the fancy bells and whistles' eMachine that's part of the problem.

I agree with you on IE, but I prefer Opera myself

It would seem that even Microsoft is telling people to use Firefox, just days after the federal government did the same. An opinion article posted on Microsoft's own slate.msn.com on June 30th explains how writer Paul Boutin, scared of getting infected by the Scob (also known as Download.ject) keystoke logger worm, converted to the 'fox.
Boutin explains, "I've been using it (Firefox) for a week now, and I've all but forgotten about Explorer."
The article then explains why Boutin feels that Firefox is the superior browser, mostly from a security point of view. While he does point out that one of the biggest reasons Firefox is more secure is that it only has a 2 or 3 percent market share compared to Internet Explorer's 95+, and that in the future there may be exploits for Firefox that are uncovered.
Boutin's article also points out other features that IE lacks, such as tabbed browsing, plug-ins, and standard compliant rendering (although the author just says that pages will look different.) The author did leave out mentioning themes.
In addition to recommending Firefox over IE, Boutin also calls Outlook/Outlook Express "two other virus carriers." As an alternative, the author suggests Mozilla Thunderbird.
How Mozilla's Firefox trumps Internet Explorer.

IE >> That other browser.
Enough said.
