My Solution To IE and Chat Room
Mon, 12/12/2005 - 05:56Topic: Epilepsy.com Help
I messed with my settings and updates on my computer regarding IE and the chat room until I had only one hair on my head left that I hadn't pulled out. They don't like each other at all. And I don't like them anymore either when used in the same sentence together.
But I had to find ONE place to read and chat instead of having to go to google to chat and IE to read.(Don't ask...I have no clue why.) So I downloaded Mozilla Firefox. And guess what? Not only can I read and chat...it loads faster than IE and my ISP.
And for any people who cut their teeth on IE like I did and use it mainly out of habit...you can still use both. Firefox opens in its own window.
Smiles all around!

Patty,
Did you ever get around to trying it? If so, what do you think? I came across software on the free extensions to the site to eliminate the 'flashing' on flashing ads and such that may be a help to those that flashing ads and smilies may pose a problem for. It has oodles of extensions to add to the site. I still haven't read through them all. I'm really pleased with the site. And I'm not easy to please when it comes to search engines, browsers and such. Smiles all around!
