| Michael Saint Photographer Alexis Texas is always lovely 1062 Posts 2/01 | Okay I love Firefox but apparently I am missing something when running it on my MAC I just don't know what. Sites like Hotmail (yes I know it is a windows site) and MySpace come out all screwed up. Buttons misaligned images not there etc. At first I thought it was a MAC thing and then I opened those same sites in Safari and they worked fine. Anyone know of some extension or something I may be missing to make this happen? [Link] |

| Michael Saint Photographer Alexis Texas is always lovely 1062 Posts 2/01 | True and I swore I would never join that site but wanted to contact someone who posts there so I did (Profile is blank though). Searched for almost 5 hours through the Firefox forum yesterday and finally came up with a download that seemed to have fixed my problem. Apparently it had something to do with MS and other sites using "slashes" in there picture addresses. I don't pretend to understand it but I installed it and everything seems to work fine now. |

| CG_Gurl80 Member Sexy Bitches 486 Posts 1/05 | The transition is seamless, go here and download Mozilla Firefox then install it. Firefox comes with an Import Wizard to transfer your bookmarks, go hereand follow the very easy instructions. It's more secure and has a lot of flexibility. With all the extensions and customizable features, you'll find firefox to be a huge improvement over IE. Plus, the learning curve is minimal, so you'll be surfing your porn in no time. Enjoy! |

| croy Platinum Member Discovry 4574 Posts 3/04 | I asked everybody what extentions they like which helped me greatly. |
| JAGnLA All-Star Member people pay me NOT to get naked 1944 Posts 2/04 | I have noticed one glitch, however, and predictably it was while browsing MySpace : Whever I go to comment on a friend's blog-entry, I cannot access the "edit box" to leave a comment. My cursor just will not appear within the box to type any text. I noticed that there is a check-box available for these situations, but if checked one must manually format all the html as opposed to the normal "rich text" availability. Is there a plug-in that I am missing or what? |

| Harri Patel Senior Member #SDNY he's all yours. -- Michael Steele 5110 Posts 3/03 | I like the Adblock extension, with the companion Adblock Filterset.G Updater (occasionally, it may block content you're trying to view, in which case you just right-click on the "Adblock" text on the lower-right corner of the browser window and tell it to "whitelist" the page, or the whole site), and the Tab Mix Plus extension to set up the tabbed browsing the way I like it. I used to use the Mouse Gestures one, but I've kind of gotten away from it. |

Lee, your page display problems could be font size related too. Just something else to try. Edited by - Oatmeal on 7/15/2006 9:40:02 AM |

| Jeff @ IAFD Webmaster IAFD.COM 931 Posts 6/00 | You can use the "Program Access and Defaults" applet in Windows (probably on your start menu in XP) to tell Windows to only use Firefox when browsing the web. Then, get the "Open Link in IE" extension to Firefox so you can look at the occasional site (Empire's VOD service, for example) that only works in IE. As far as Mac users go, I've heard very good things from friends about OmniWeb (info/review) Edited by - Jeff @ IAFD on 7/17/2006 11:44:02 AM Edited by - Jeff @ IAFD on 7/17/2006 11:44:23 AM |
