iamthechamp Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 My question is: Is there a difference between playing Runescape on Firefox or Internet Explorer? If there is a difference, which is better and why? Thank You! :thumbup: <---Please click him and you get a cookie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldJoe Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Usually IE is a bit more resource-hungry than FF. But i always run IE when playing RS, i don't know how to put it but it has an "active java window"... On FF or Opera i have to click a couple of times in-game before i can write, with IE i can write as soon as a switch to that window (i'm usually surfing or doing other stuff at the same time). Actually, i have quite many problems with FF3, it keeps crashing every now and then.. But i don't run it so often so doesn't matter.

Sbrideau Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Actually, i have quite many problems with FF3, it keeps crashing every now and then.. Hmm, with me it was Firefox 2 that did that. FF3 never crashed on me :-k And I only rarely used IE for Runescape, but I sence a difference, as minor as it can be, with the speed the game responds, meaning it is slower on IE than Firefox, but that's just a feeling. To get to the game, though, it's much faster with firefox, since pages load instantly instead of waiting a few seconds for each page to load on IE. attacx, no, Firefox is not safer, just has add-ons to increase the safety of what you do, plus it's less vulnerable since IE is the most used browser.

Bac_Talan Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 When on my mom's computer, Firefox is completely smooth, and IE is so laggy it's unplayable. I haven't noticed a difference on other computers, but Firefox just seems more appealing in just about every other way, in addition to loading pages much faster. I once shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.Pics or it didn't happen. I hate my generation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracion1 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I haven't had any problems with playing Firefox. I haven't used IE for over a year on my computer, and I hope it stays that way.

Tom_Servo Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 I heard Mozilla is safer then Internet Explorer, soooo..... :thumbsup: But that really doesn't mean anything unless you do not have an anti-virus. A browser is not an anti-virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha, for me it was that FF2 was stable, i can't remember when it crashed (surely sometime) but not as much as FF3. Lol, such big difference between people.

Dracion1 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Might want to add, Firefox is more standards compliant that IE (Though Opera beats both), yet both have their own quirks for rendering certain bits of css and suchlike.

Sbrideau Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 True, but I still use Firefox almost as much as Opera, since opera is a bit slower than FF3 for me. Lol just bought a new laptop, and first thing I do is download Firefox :XD: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
