Is it possible

Come in! Have a margarita or root beer? How about some fresh trout? :)

Is it possible

Post by Spinning Hat »

for a browser upgrade to load pages faster? I upgraded from mozilla Firebird 0.6 to 0.7 today, and it just 'feels' faster than 0.6. Some of the niggling little things seem to have been fixed too, like not being able to highlight objects with the mouse, etc. I'm gonna keep using it, as I like it a lot better than IE. I'd recommend it to most anyone, as long as you're not afraid to try beta software. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>"Never, Never, Never Quit"</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> -Winston Churchill</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

Yup. It's possible. Certain routines can be optimized to display some parts before other parts are loaded, and there's rendering logic for the graphics parts, and lots of stuff. <p></p><i></i>

Well, I like it. I really do. Much nicer to have the built in popup blocker, and tabbed browsing, and mousing gestures extensions. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.mozdev.org">www.mozdev.org</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <-- Go check it out. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>"Never, Never, Never Quit"</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> -Winston Churchill</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

I use Avant Browser, and I like it.
