Yeah. I use Firefox and will never go back. Never had a problem. If you have firefox 2 you can get a plug in that lets you run webpages as if you were using Internet Explorer. I've not used it but once.

Firefox is a separate Internet browser that frankly, is much better than IE will ever be.

It basically allows you to browse the web in a program different from IE.

Yeah, it's just basically a cooler internet. I only have Internet Explorer myself, though.

Well, Astral Omega is only here to help!

Instructions on using Tabs through internet explore:

1) Click the option "Tools" (You should se it next to "File, Edi, Veiw, Favourites" etc.)
2) Click "Internet Options" (Bottom of the list)
3) You shouls see several options then. "Home Page" "Browsing History" "Search" and then "Tabs"
4) Click Settings
5) Check the box "Enable Tabbed Browsing (Required Restarting Internet Explorer)"
6) Close all Internet Explorer windows you have open (This is what it mean s by 'restart internet explorer'
7) Enjoy your tabs!
8)???
9) Profit

This is how you do it on my version of Internet explorer anyway. I don't see why it should be any different on yours.

Hope this was helpful and informative^^ Astral Out.

Hi! Personally, I don't think Firefox is any better or worse than the current version of IE, so I just use IE. I want to try out Chrome (Google's new browser) when I have time though.

So... My schedule has just been turned out it's head. As previously mentioned, my grandpa had a heart attack. He's doing alright now but since his health wasn't great to begin with and he's in his 90's, they're not sure if he'll recover or not. So my dad is going back for a few days to see him and since I haven't seen him for about a year and a half, I'm going too. I'm leaving really early Friday morning and getting back sometime Monday night. In the meantime, I've got to try and get as much of my homework as possible done today and tomorrow since I don't know how much time I'll have to work on things while on the trip (and I won't have my text books anyway). Long story short, I'm going to be extremely busy today and tomorrow and then out of town through Monday. I'll get on when I can but don't expect to see a whole lot of me until Tuesday or Wednesday.

On another note, the Heroes premere was awesome.

I love having tabs on my computer! I've only had them for abotu a year, and I can't imagine being without them. I usually have five or six tabs open at a time.

Hey.
Plenty of homework to do...should probably get started....
Bleh.

I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate, hate tabs.
You can't Alt+Tab through them and other programs.

Heso! Seriously? Silver <3 tabs. You have no idea how much easier they've made IPA updates... 'Cause I often need to have a lot of windows open at once. The dice roller, the topic I'm posting in, a few pages back in the topic I'm posting in to check the IPA list, Psydex... Not to mention the Super Special Awesome IPA Notepad Document of Truth. Plus Firefox is pretty over rated. It... really isn't very different from IE at all.

Also! The Heroes season premiere was cool and all, but... let's take a look at this from Silver's standpoint.
Micah = Greatest character ever = Like five seconds of screen time.
Matt Parkman = Greatest character ever = Near dead for an hour and 45 minutes, then talking to turtles. ...Ok, well that was kinda funny, but...
Mohinder Suresh = former greatest character ever = Seriously? Did you lose that many brain cells between season two and three?
Ando = Greatest character ever = Future Homicidal Backstabber of Japan
Hiro = Greatest character ever = The highlight of teh episode. And of... my life. ("I told you not to open it!")
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Frankly Josiah, I've tried them both and I agree. IE 7 (I think that's its current version right?) is pretty good. But, the thing that brings Ff a head above IE is that you can add-on anything you want just about. That and it's open source. But I haven't dabbled into that quite yet.
Tabs are how I live my life.

Yeah, so I'm crazy. I ran around 1 and a half miles, did around 60 push ups, all sorts of marine level training, went home, ate a large portion of broccoli salad, then grape salad, then 3 hot dogs and a soda... Then I went to band practice.
No I'm not going into the marines, my friend is. I'm making sure he doesn't skimp on training... or something.
