OT rant: Get Firefox.
I had a burst of inspiration this morning and remade my blog.
I was very happy with the result until I saw how IE rendered it. IE made my thing of beauty look like something my cats had barfed up...
So I had to resort to "uglyfy" The Moody Poker Blog just so that IE would be able to render it properly...I just cant understand why it is so difficult for a large company as microsoft to create a browser that adhere to W3 standards.
Therefore my plea to you are: For the love of God! Please, please, please download and start using Firefox.

Yeah, don't you just hate IE?
Been using Mozilla then Firefox for over 8 months now - uh, what's IE?

I've been a user for a while. I love it.
looks fine to me. There will be a new version of IE this year - you may come flocking back to the MS fold!
Well, we'll see on the IE new version...the hype always winds up being more than the actual end result....for now...I love my Firefox.......
I love Firefox. Haven't used IE since I downloaded it!

Yes, my blog pic looked horrible on IE...however unlike you, i'm sticking to it.
I read somewhere that most people who blog/read blogs use firefox. Hopefully that is true =)
I would use Firefox if it weren't for the displaying problems it has from time to time.
Sometimes web pages designed and can work on IE can't be applied to the same. I tried to setlocale on firefox and it blew up in my face! Now I could have been stupid, but then they software also has to be flexible, yet, it's made by programmers, like myself, and therefore agree not to make it flexible but make it easy.
It's free and works fast, which is good, so 100%.
But I.E. is used by the commerical sheep of the world and web sites need to work, so I.E. slave I am!

Changed to Firefox last week. The Tabbed browsing is brilliant. Using the little 'e' less and less.
I love my firefox, but nowadays I mostly use IE. Why? Coz of work, not all that comfortable about downloading new programs to comps that aren't mine, even when I know its fine. Plus we don't have admin priv.s so no can do.
Am actually using Opera at the mo, but its an old version and I can't check my gmail on it :( But IE has been infected and we're waiting on IT support to get over here *sigh*
I downloaded Firefox and personally found it to browse too slow, also I found I had to install plug-ins that are already installed in IE...ok that's not much of a problem, but some of the plug-ins suck...so it's back to IE for me until such time as they improve the browsing speed of Firefox and do something about the plug-ins.
