nman96 Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 Welcome! I.Introductions So you want to know how to use each browser and which is the best. I will tell you what I think is the best easiest and most useful. (E.g- for browsing, gaming, other). If you have any suggestions on else to put in the guide I forgot thank you. II.Internet Explorer Intro. Not one of my favorites but by far the most popular for anything, since it comes with windows and people are quick to say this is the best since it came on my hard drive. Download Pagehttp://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/ie/default.mspx Screenshot: Overall:8/10 Rs Test:(broadband) about 4 seconds to load, 7 to fully load. Gaming:Not bad but better for text browsing. Download Page: Hard to manuver very complicated, 5 clicks from microsoft home page. Other: Comes on your hard drive so the most used browser. Percentages: Makes up almost 60% of browsers and is declining at a rade of .75 of a percent per month. III. Mozilla Firefox Coming up as one of the most popular, liked browsers because of quickness and customized settings made easy. It is the browser I primarily used and is one of the best for runescape. Screenshot: Overall:9.5/10 Rs Test:(broadband) about 2 seconds to load, 5 to fully load. Gaming:Good for gaming probably the best of the major 3 Download Page: Very quick Other: You must download and skins and add-ons are easy to get and easy to install. Percentages: Makes up about 25% of the market, a good for not microsoft. IV. Opera Opera is a simple browser made for browsing and quickness. 3rd out of 3 for me, yes last it isn't microsoft thats for sure and I just don't like the feel and big buttons. Screenshot: Overall:7.5/10 Rs Test:(broadband) about 5 seconds to load, 8 to fully load. Gaming:Good for gaming probably the best of the major 3 Download Page:Fastest Other: Basic Percentages: Makes up 10% of the market with the other five going to small and private browsers made by amateur programmers. V. Ending Welp, the end of the guide hope you liked it :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bsmovies Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 its a good guide for basic users, i would give it 8/10. but for advanced users like myself (i know these things already, but) it dosent tell you about cpu usage, ram/pagefile minimum and maximum usage. how much memory it allocates to itself and components etc. And the firefox speed test will be wrong, firefox usually doubles in speed if you install the fasterfox extension. soo 6.5/10 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonlapsed Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 3/10, its based mostly on personal opinion. You pretty much took 5 statistics for 3 browsers, a personal comment for each and decided that you had this amazing guide to all the browsers. It provides hardly any info that any advanced user doesn't know. And you make Opera sound like a piece of ****. Not to mention the fact that IE does NOT come with your hard drive, it comes with Windows..... There are other OS's out there; Linux, Mac OSX and so many others i dont have the time to name.

Brrx Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I guess its decent for Windows users who dont do a lot of intensive computing. Ever heard of Konquer, Camino, or Safari ?? Live by the sword, die by the sword... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
