Web Browsers and Pop-Up stoppers

[ethan]

what are your recoomendations? i havent seen mozilla web browser, and the popup stopper i had closed everything i clicked on almost. please post what do you think is the best of these programs.

[VigilVirus]

Why would you need one? Too lazy to close a couple of windows or are you just going to site which have hundreds of popups? ::)

[ethan]

because occasionally i get pornopopups and i dont even want to see those.

[Gobalopper]

Mozilla has a good popup blocker that allows you to still have windows popup that you click on.

[ethan]

uh, do nt mean to be rude, but do you have a picture and link of mozilla?

[Acriku]

I don't have a picture, but here's a link - Mozilla

I use Phoenix however :D

[ethan]

why is Pheonix better than MSN?

[Gobalopper]

Anything is better then MSN.

You can use Opera to stop pop up windows. In my opinion it's faster in loading pages than any other browser.

[Desert_Eagle25]

Well, I must agree with Gob, anything is better than MSN. The only big hype about MSN 8 is it's new "Ultra-Sleek" options and look. If you ask me, MoZilla/Opera/Phoenix and the other non-heard-of browers are much better.

[ethan]

do you know which one is the smallest? i have 46.6 and i hate d/ling stuff

[Gobalopper]

Phoenix is about 7MB to download.

Thats a bit harsh, thats basically saying that anything microsoft must be crappier, and thats saying that because it is microsoft.

Thats jsut pure hate for microsoft products just because it carries such a name.

Sure, they have uptight rules about the source coding, and they seem to add extra, unneeded stuff, but waht do you expect from the head company? And if MS products were as bad as you say they are, the company wouldn't be where it is now.

Onwards

yes, phoenix is better then MSN browser

And try avant, avant is the only browser ive ever tried that actualyl replaced IE, not even you peoples beloved mozilla did that.

[ethan]

thanks, but can i go back to MSN if i dont like it?

btw, avant is 700kbs. awesome!

[Gobalopper]

Ok let me put it this way then, anything I've tried is better then MSN.

I never said I didn't like Microsoft, I said I didn't like MSN.

[Desert_Eagle25]

true, i've had problems with MoZilla such as saving images and videos, so i think i might try out avant.

if he's talking About MSN Explorer, no it ain't harsh.

But IE is OK...better than NetScape.

[ethan]

i like avant. it has the look of XP, a built in pop-up thingy, you can have an almost infinate amount of webpages open with only one browser, the list goes on. not to mention faster page loads and faster downloads.

[Gobalopper]

I'm guessing it uses IE to render the pages then? I can't see it being under 1 MB unless it uses some other browser to display the pages.

[Desert_Eagle25]

Avant is great....but I want to set it as my default browser, how do I do that?

Edit : Ack, found it nevermind

its alot like IE, just with more features

[jacobdouds]

It used to be called IE Opera, its an opera clone mucked with to look and act as IE.

Windows inside itself, popup stopper, a few megs to d/l.

MSN Explorer sucks, but I used to use it for sending emails through hotmail.

Its hard replacing IE as your default browser entirely, but in the options menu, or when you first startup, you can do so, and it replcaes it mostly.

It has little mouse click things, clicking right mouse, holding then left mouse, then release both, moves you back a page, and vice versa.

20popups currently stopped whilst I surf now, very clean, has that lovely feel of opera. No weird ebay shortcuts or anyhting though.

Intgrated google search.

And so on.

[Gobalopper]

I've never used IE for more then a few minutes so I've never had to replace it as my default. I can see why you would get used to some features that couldn't be found in other browsers though.
