    I Hate Change!!!

    Can we please just stick to ONE Internet Explorer and call it done for Infinity?!?

    Hmm?

    Please, can we??

    Thank you Bill Gates for IE8..

    now my forum view is Super Duper Extra Wide. My Toolbars are all screwed up. And somehow my mouse is also acting all screwy.

    And that's just what I've found in the first minute.

    GAWD!!!

    Exactly. I have never quite recovered from Explorer 8. To view links on this site, I have to hit my control key as I'm clicking on the link and then another tab/window pops up. On my Outlook Express I can't open my links at all and I have yet to find anyone who can figure out how to fix my settings to correct this. It's not the popup blocker, I know that. I've tweeked it and turned it off...everything and I get the same deal. I can't even access all of my smilies when I'm composing a thread here. When I hit the "more" button nothing happens, whether I hit the ctrl key or not. On Ebay I can't even get an enlarged picture of an item. I hate Explorer 8.

                Hmmmm....

                Any sort of upgrade like this bugs me. Explorer isn't SUPPOSED to be all awanky and new; it's one of them programs that's meant to facilitate something else. THere's nothing to add to it, just as long as it works.

                    I had tried that and it completely fried my system. I had to restore my system to get it back. If I cculd just fix those specific problems I could live with it.

                      I hate change to. I rid my pockets from it every chance I get. It becomes bulky and cumbersome....hmm....just like IE8.

                      It seems like lately everything Bill Gates and Co. touches turns to crap.. Just like the geniuses behind Evil Bay.

                      I can't wait to see what Windows 7 has to offer or the lack of.....Do they (Microsoft) ever even bother to test anything any more BEFORE they release it to the masses in the public for sale? Anyone else ever feel like a guinea pig?

                      I very reluctantly switched to FireFox some time ago. I am sure glad that I did. What was I thinking? I only wished that I would have switched sooner.

                      I like change as long as change is a good thing.

                          Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?

                              I would take firefox over chrome.
