98bonerSTOCKshee Posted October 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2004 http://www.mozilla.com Oh, and to pages that appear to have glitches.. you have to keep in mind that Microsoft has basically distributed all sorts of proprietary web code that work fine with IE -- but not with other browsers. Anything that adheres with the proper W3C standards will show up fine in Firefox. Haven't had any issues though. Microsoft did the same thing with Java... and lost in court to Sun. Hence SP1a for XP... no Java VM. Firefox is good though.. I have been using 3 days now, I have noticed that when I run the spybot, spysubtract and all the other "spy" removers that they aren't finding anything. This is just after 3 days but one hell of a differance from the Explorer After 3 hours I would be detecting all sorts of bad thingies..

nater006 Posted October 4, 2004 Report Share Posted October 4, 2004 "ActiveX -- Or How To Put A Nuclear Bomb In A Webpage" http://www.halcyon.com/mclain/ActiveX/Exploder/FAQ.htm A good article if you're ever wondering why you're getting all that spyware, or why a lot of us hate Internet Exploder. Its old (1997) -- but that stuff still pertains to today's versions of IE. Just skip the "Exploder" stuff at the beginning and read up on the parts of why ActiveX does what it does... Spyware/Adware/Malware will no longer be a mystery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
