Now that the group pages provide you with RSS feeds you can seamlessly integrate them into Firefox and always be on top of discussions.

and i've been using firefox. It is greater than IE, no crashes or spywares. Got a lot of extensions ans themes too. It is just like e46M3 said: so customizable and I do totally agree. The only problem is when you try to open a website designed with Microsoft Front Page, It won't sometimes be displayed correctly. I knew that it was a great web browser since I saw it integrated with Linux :)

King Edshel said RSS ...

Is a data stored usually in XML format, regularly updated like the news. You can use them as the database for your website interface. It is more like having an empty cup, you can fill it with water, beer or coffee. Those websites can be filled with those RSS feeds. All you need is a RSS reader [Cup] to update it with the data [RSS, Coffee , Tea , etc ....]. It is just a software that you can use to read those. XML files are updated so easily and are supported by most browsers if it was not all of them. They load very quick too in addition to the other advantages of them.

Hope that i make it easy for you ..

rabid_tongue said FireFOx VS IE ...

Woooow this is so cool i've just started using in it and it blows me away... is it recommendable to uninstall IE now when your firefox is up and running?

 

King Edshel's picture

King Edshel said Uninstall IE ...

It is not a problem for them to co-exist on the same machine. You can have 'Opera' Browser too. As well as you are using Firefox as your default browser should be no problems. One more thing, some websites won't work properly with Firefox so you will need IE as a backup in case ...

e46M3 said Uninstalling Internet ...

Uninstalling Internet Explorer completely is extremely difficult and not recommended.
It's used throughout Windows. For example, Outlook, Word, Windows Explorer; basically any apps that need to render HTML all rely on IE to some degree. If you remove IE, which requires editing your system registry files (NOT RECOMMENDED), you'll then have to associate these apps with another Web rendering product. Your best bet is to simply drag and drop the IE icon to the trash bin and forget about it.
