Aquamarine Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 If you're using a PC, use Firefox. If you're using a Mac, use Safari. They are almost essentially the same browser, just made by different companies. I've got a PC, and IE was constantly crashing, so I switched to Firefox and had a lot of the same problems. Then I tried Safari, and although it has OTHER problems--like not being supported by some sites, and some commands not working as they should, among other things--the crashing/freezing problem quit. So I've stuck with it, and suffered through the other problems! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evster2012 Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 PC and IE and right now no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarlaxle 56 Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Ubuntu, and I'm using the older version of Firefox. The newer version works fine, but I like the feel of the older version. If you're looking for a new browser to try -- give Opera a shot. http://www.opera.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Hartman Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Firefox exclusively. Crashes on occasion which is par for the course for any browser. Kinda tepid about updating it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manderlyh Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I never have a choice in updating it. It updates itself, dangit! My pet peeves for the day: 1. I was woken by a weed whacker at 7am--it sounded like it was outside my bedroom window. 2. The neighbor's dog (a yippy one) is outside and WON'T SHUT UP! I swear, this thing drives me crazy!

Broken Levee Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Just took the first step to quit smoking yesterday. I bought some organic tobacco with no additives and they're roll your own. I figure this way I'll have to work for a cigarette and eventually I'll get tired of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footsteps of Dawn Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 2. The neighbor's dog (a yippy one) is outside and WON'T SHUT UP! I swear, this thing drives me crazy! Ugh, I hate that. It's like an anvil chorus around here... On any given day, you can hear the musical stylings of: - my dog, a dachshund - the Weimaraner next door - the two border terriers on the other side next door - some kind of yippy, squeaky little squirt (like the one you're dealing with) at the end of the cul-de-sac that I've never actually seen - some other dog, who's the loudest of them all...I don't even know where it lives or what it looks like, but it will not shut up!! Usually all hell breaks loose whenever the UPS truck goes down the street...I don't know what it is, but all the dogs are convinced that the UPS man is evil. The mailman? No problem. But UPS must die, apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the funny part - the guy always brings them a dog treat! This neighborhood doesn't take bribes, I guess, because I think he could show up with a steak dinner and they'd still all bark! Nutty dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they're barking with excitement knowing the sound of the truck that brings them treats! That's a possibility, for the rest of the neighborhood. My dog is definitely a snarling, slobbering, back-hair-raised attack weenie when the UPS man comes to the door, though. This dog will not be bought, lol.

Evster2012 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Are you talking about me? Sorry, I couldn't resist - it's like you were setting us up for that one! Pretty sure it's me this time. A simple contradictory opinion can take you down the rabbit hole with Honey. Hell, agreeing with her is like playing dodgeball! Witness her responses in Revolution. I said some of my friends dropped high school for union jobs as forklift drivers. She replied suggesting I'm screwed if I have a heart attack. Um, okay. My ill-educated union friends have some of the best healthcare policies of anyone I know. But it goes right over her head. I'm annoying her by trying to have a logical conversation and, god forbid, sharing a few facts about people I actually know. I guess that makes me self-absorbed and clueless while she condescends from her pedestal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I just couldn't resist the irony of asking if it was me, since if anyone asked that question, they'd immediately show themselves to be just as self-absorbed as EL implied, thinking it was all about them.
