Browser
Firefox and Windows Media Player
Submitted by yipeee on Fri, 02/08/2008 - 17:05.I've been using Firefox for many years now. The only thing I've been using Internet Explorer for is to watch videos at CNN.com and other places that use the embedded Windows Media Player as WMP doesn't work in Firefox....or didn't until I found this little gem of an add-on.
"To IE or not to IE?"
Submitted by DeepGeek on Sun, 01/21/2007 - 02:10.I would be the last person with qualified advice in the IE7 vs IE6 choices. I don't (in fact, can't) run IE7 with my workstation. I can (and do) run IE6 with a proper WINE configuration; I do run IE6 because many devices that I install require Internet Explorer to access their web interfaces.
I complain that IE (any version) is not fully compliant with the W3C DTD. This is a bit unfair, since I've yet to find any browser that is 100% compliant. However, Microsoft does push the envelope too hard.
Problem closing IE7
Submitted by DeepGeek on Sat, 01/20/2007 - 23:00.Recently, one of my customers complained of problems when closing Microsoft's latest browser release.
Sure enough, without prejudice of closing procedure, a warning issued: "Internet Explorer 7 has crashed".
