Decent Browser
Firefox is starting to get on my nerves now. I need to keep restarting it as it keeps slowing down.
I would like a browser with the same sort of functions
Pop up blocker
Ability to import bppkmarks from Firefox.
Wiki toolbar
Google toolbar
What would any of you suggest?
Cheers

Re: Decent Browser
I have Firefox, Opera, Chrome, IE8 and Safari on my machine just so I can try them out with different apps.
Safari appears to render graphics better than the others.
You can click the link below which shows you how to speed up Firefox which means you going into the browser and changing setting.

Re: Decent Browser
I use chrome on my desktop & my laptop but use IE8 on my Q1 because it works better than chrome on a touchscreen (even with touch dragging enabled).

Re: Decent Browser
Being a Mac user I'm used to Safari and I've used it on Windows and its perfectly quick enough for me even on windows. Chrome is OK but hasn't rendered pages perfectly everytime for me (maybe it'll be fixed in future). At work I use FF but even that occasionally misrenders pages.

Re: Decent Browser
IE8 is stable enough but I do prefer Safari.
