I use Firefox all time now, still have IE installed. When someone sends me an Email with a link in it, clicking the link always defaults to opening up in IE, any settings I can change to default to FF ?

Yeah, change your default browser to firefox, at the minute it is set as ie

cool, done, thanks very much.

and switch to chrome

no problem

everyone always says they dont use IE etc and should use firefox or chrome but ive always found IE to work better

Always preferred IE, now on mac with safari and firefox, nothing to choose between them tbh, sometimes firefox makes stuff look a bit funny though

Had chrome for a while, was weird at first but seems weird going to a different layout now!

Find what works for you on your system for your needs, none of them are useless browsers tbh........

they are all pretty good to be honest.
years ago i switched from IE6 to FF, simply cause FF had tabs and sticked with it from then.
Then last year everything in FF seemed slow so I thought I would give Chrome a try and everything was faster and its great.

its all just personal preference

I use firefox all day at work and it never crashes or freezes etc, i go home and use ie for about 3-4 hours and I have to restart it 2 or 3 times somtimes my laptop crashes - the laptop is also a better spec than the work pc and has been scanned for virus/ad ware/spy ware/etc

I have never got on with ie. It doesn't react quick enough for my liking!

So download firefox?

Its my gf's laptop... Apparently it doesn't crash for her. LIES!!!

I have used all the browsers, I just find FF and IE to me more cumbersome and slower whereas chrome is instant - for me anyway

ie drops out a lot.

FF much faster and stable, need to keep the version updated as they come out - often.
