Firefox is updated to a new version way too often in my opinion.
And everytime its updated, they change everything for no apparent reason.
Buttons move, colours change, layout changes, settings change.
And all those Plug-ins and Add-ons that you've grown to love since the last version update,
now won't work with the new version update!
Don't get me wrong...I love Firefox.
And i have been using it faithfully for more than ten years.
But it can be very frustrating and is so...so...so...so...buggy!
When Firefox doesn't like a website, or won't get along with something on the web,
or some other application just won't work with Firefox...
I switch to Chrome, my other favorite browser.
I prefer the layout and operation of Firefox over Chrome, but they both have features I like.
I run AdBlock Plus on both browsers....very important!
I also have my anti-virus and anti-malware programs integrated into both.
Both browsers use Bing as their home search pages
but I also have SearchLock integrated to stop all the tracking and unwanted sponsored search results.
(I don't like being told what I want to search for!)
Script plugins cause alot of other problems, so I just allow the browser to do its own thing
and inform me of any script related problems...then I just stop the scripts when needed.
If a website is incompatible that way, or takes too long to load, I am usually gone before it causes a problem.
And why, if you like using Windows XP, you haven't upgraded to Win 7 yet, is beyond me.
Do yourself the biggest favour of your computer life and switch.
I won't recommend Vista....or Win 8....or Win 10...even though there are users who are happy.
But if you are still struggling with XP, I can't suggest it loudly enough...GET 7!
