Try Firefox for a Faster Forum
 

Firefox really will make the forum - and the whole internet - faster! Not only that, but it's so much safer, too.

Another alternative to IE - Google Chrome. I've been using this one more and more lately.

www.google.com/chrome

Both are free :)

That's great but not always practical due to various reasons. Other sites not supporting those, using work provided computers etc. Any word on why the hangups still on regular IE?

I've been using Firefox for years and have never had a problem! I'd never go back to IE. I always had so many problems with it!
