I havent had any trouble for the past couple days but I know what your talking about. But when it does do it, usualy it lasts for about five minets then goes back to normal. I thought they might have been working on the servers...
Yeah, there might be one time or another when a page is slow to load, but it's a temporal thing, and it only happens the once. I figured it was my isp. I'm also using firefox
Maybe this time last year I decided that anything that came standard on a Dell was noob. It's changed since, Dell has that is, and Intel too.
I use IE all the time with no problems. People who have problems with IE don't acknowledge the risks of the internet and don't take the necessary precautions. Firefox isn't really any better security-wise, theres just not enough people using it for companies or hackers to make things such as browser hijackers for it. Same thing goes for people who use Macs. If enough people use Macs, viruses will be made for them. So, instead of wasting your time getting different software, get anti-virus and anti-spyware programs. I use Spybot: Search & Destroy, which makes use of IE security settings to block most bad things.
and less security flaws. i personally don't understand that, but i had a tech friend practically crying to me to stop using IE, after i used him to remove all the crap that it let through.
Don't forget Extensions, they make my life happy, and cool themes. There's so many ways to customize it.
