Translate

Dear Friends:
I am running an antique Computer with Windows XP and Firefox as the browser: The Computer Guy only charged us $25.00 for the computer Said stay away from Google browser as that was what killed the last computer.
My question is How do I do translations done in Foxfire like I did in Google? I like the middle euro models and don't speak Polish, Czech, Russian, Etc. We also get some interesting things on this forum.
Thanks
Miles

Install Translate This into Firefox.
Works well for anything not affected by ad-blocking programs.
Instantly translates entire pages into any language.

How can a Browser kill your computer?
If you don't take the necessary security precautions, thats what kills a computer.
(If we are talking about malicious internet viruses and software.)

Was your computer guy referring to Google Chrome?
Because as far as I know, its one of the cleanest browsers.
Other than the MS connection, it actually works better than Firefox.
I have been considering dropping Firefox altogether (I currently run both browsers)
Firefox has been getting slower and more temperamental over the last few versions.
Many users are jumping ship.

I also use FreeTranslate, Bing Translate, and GoogleTranslate websites.

Who said that either understands little of computers or is trying to mislead you.

Google Chrome isn't perfect but cannot damage a computer. Like airdave mentioned, no browser covers all bases. I use mostly Firefox (I like to archive pages I visit, and for me Firefox saves whole pages better), but always keep Chrome around. Some sites work better (or at all) with one browser or another; I usually blame lazy or understaffed developers who don't test properly for different browsers.

Regarding translations I usually try translate.google.com. It's not as automatic as Chrome offering to translate for you, but works in any browser.

have a similar add-on for Opera, but it is not working on Bilsport
Would it being an archived site on the Wayback Machine be the reason??
I have it set to Always Translate, but.......

I dumped the G browser when I lost my Youtube account.

I wanted it to Stay separate from gmail, but they would not allow that
SO All things G went!!

Added 3 different translators to Firefox

Not sure Maxthon has a page translator.
