Firefox is officially dead to me.

I've been google assimilated.

That page hijacker virus I got only affect firefox.

We switched to Chrome last week and love it. Firefox blows next to chrome.

Ya gotta get Firefox, they said.
Firefox is the best browser ever, they said.

I may just go back to IE and be done with it. Let me know when the Browser Rebellion is over.

I'm trying Chrome, and I like Firefox better, I think.

Competition is a good thing Shawnee.

yabbut, it's a pain in the ass for us dummies. :lol:

I actually downloaded Chrome some time ago. I may have gotten rid of it...my poor old computer is loaded to the gills.

I don't know if this is true or just my perception (I threw that in for classic ;) ) but it does seem like I find a lot more spyware (when I run spybot) on Firefox than I did when I used IE.

Is that possible or did I just not notice before?

I can't get my friggin' root cert authority to be recognized in chrome. It's my own goddamn domain; I know the cert is legit. No matter what I do, or where I load the damn thing, I cannot get it accepted.

Chrome is dead to me. Dead.

Chrome is pissing me off today. Flashblock is not blocking youtube links on cellar pages. Therefore every cellar page with a youtube embedded in it is taking forever to load.

Did you accidentally tell it to always allow flash from this site?

No. I checked, but thanks for the suggestion.

There are actually two different Flashblock plugins for Chrome... I found that I liked one, more than the other. You might have the same experience.

I could tell you which one I liked better, except that I can't, because they're both called Flashblock.

Aw shit, I thought, I don't want to rewrite that post!

I made a screen capture of the 2/3rds of it that was still on my screen, and ended Chrome. Windows 7 did a nice job of noticing that the application was hung, and helpfully gave me a dialog box to end the program.

I decided that, with a pending Windows Update due, I should just reboot the entire system. When it came back I restarted Chrome. Chrome noticed that it had crashed, and asked whether I wanted all the tabs back. Nothing new there, Firefox will do that for you.

OK, I thought, might as well. But when the Cellar tab reappeared, my whole post was there with it. How awesome! How unexpectedly delightful! Great work, Google: if they want the tabs restored, chances are 99.9% they want the form data restored too.

I have switched to using Chrome as my primary browser.

I love chrome but I still feel like I have to use firefox... Theirs some addons on firefox that I can't live without now :(. I also don't think I can "save tabs" when I close chrome which was one of the things I love the most out of firefox. Besides that, I find chrome is a better browser, almost never crashes and you barely lose anything when it does.
