Just some random persons opinion, is that supposed to sway people? Ah, convient how MyIE2 is #1 also.

Thing is stupid, along with whoever made it. Mozilla is one the the top browsers out.

I wouldn't put it so rudely, but yes, that is why i asked. But don't alot of older individuals act childish? And no, this has nothing to do with this thread.

Dude

Do you own or are you in anyway connected with MYIE2?

For someone that is just a user of it you sure are trying to push it awful hard.

The Dude
01-09-2004, 04:04 AM
No,i didnt say anything about MyIE2,i use it YES,but i didnt say anything about it this time......

Thats just a good site to keep tabs on browser ratings,etc.....I see Opera Made it in also!!

Maybe its the way you type!!!!!
And they way you insist on spamming every post with one liners!!!!!
Even if your reply has nothing to do with the topic at all!!!!!! Someone could be asking for browsing advice for a Comodore Vic 20 and you'd recomend MyIE2!!!!

Or your ONE LINE replies to every available post,5 or 6 times in one Post!!!!!

Does that give you and idea??????

I thought MyIE2 was just an entension or plug0in to MIE anyway. It still uses the basis of their technology doesn't it?

I use Mozilla, I like Mozilla and Mozilla is #1 with me anyways. The Orbit theme is gorgeous :)

Gee thats funny.. Maybe my Attention Deficit Disorder has gotten the best of me but I seem to remember that the link you provided for the lead of this thread was biased toward Mozilla is that right??

No wait.. I think it was ummmm.. MyIE2!

Was that just a coincidence that happened or am I missing something?

Like I really find your recomended source as reliable. Espcially since until recently I used to maintain a website that gets more than 500 ,000 hits a day and as I remember IE (For Mac and MS) shows up in the top 78% Netscape/Mozilla comes in second, other browsers worth mention include Opera, and Safari.. MyIE2 does not even show up anywhere in the list..

That's because it will show up as IE. I don't like MyIE2, but just playin devils advocate.

Thats because MyIE2 is not a browser, it's just a different GUI for another browser, so if anyone visiting that site was using MyIE2 then it would show them as using whatever version of MSIE they have installed :)

Maybe they should censor the word MyIE2 round here :P

Aww, and by the thread title, I thought it would be something similar to this (http://www.gumicsizma.hu/swf/nopic/iconwar.swf) .

The Dude, you may want to shelter your eyes. IE gets a bit demolished... :D

Anyone can can generate their own front end to IE using visual studio.

I reckon you all act a bit childish but then again perhaps that's because I'm an "old fart" and anyway "old farts" are allowed to act childish so there :stickout:

All the way with Opera. (wish I was affiliated with them).

BTW. seems to be more "community guides" and leaders etc than community on these forums lately ... not that I'm jealous you understand. .... did I hear someway say .. Long Live The Doctor.

I'll second that. Opera is my "weapon" of choice, and has been for quite some time.

i prefer ie because it renders the quickest. I hear the next ie will have popup stopping and tabbed browsing.... as far as windows is concerned.

if im using a unix or linux os, i usually use mozilla or opera.... which blow. If MS has ever done anything right, it was IE

Actually firebird renders faster then IE.
And its much better then mozilla... they are NOT the same thing.

40,000+ lines of code diffrent... ;)

I don't know what you heard about the next version of IE. I heard that there will be NO newer versions of IE... (unless they come with the OS. so the only way you can get IE 7 is to buy longhorn when it will come out)

You have a right to your opinion... I'm not going to flame.... but in my opinion IE sucks...

I know this and obviously a bunch of others do but obviously someone has a little harder in the crainial region and doesnt want this to be true.

It's keeps being promoted as the best browser ever!

Chill pill guys.

I'm suprised you don't know of that site. Used to be big a year ago. Well I only do this once a year with BWR. I did it lazy this year and did html only. Plus the site is only up for a month. I'll only bring back the message board to it and other user opinions posts and downloads if people would stop spaming and flaming.

By the way, those reviews are not only my opinions but the opinions of 9 other people.

Strange, the various incarnations of Opera that i've used in the past, and present seem to know precisely what HTML is.

I'm yet to find a site that doesn't agree with Opera.

That site is both uneducated, and stupid.

Q: If i was to put my a glove on my hand, what do i use to pick up a pencil?
A: My hand, not the glove.

Why do i ask that question? because that defines MYIE2. MYIE2 is just a mere "shell" for IE.

What was the point of this thread again?

I personally, don't agree with that site's listing, but opinions are like ********, everyone's got one.

Who really cares what browser is the best?

You guys are almost as bad as people debating which religion someone should choose..

TheDoctor
01-09-2004, 09:11 PM
I would be interested to know if one's choice of browser is related to there religion. i.e. All atheists use IE .. Protestants use Mozilla ..Catholics use Opera ... eternal optimists use MYIE ... Pagans use Netscape ... etc. ... Apple usere .. use ?? well who cares anyway.

Interesting theory
