February 21, 200719 yr if you say... to play runescape, it is not that good to play rs with firefox... it will use more resources to play and during minimised... ie rules! yes it does! use ie instead! Examine ChenGMT (level: 138)

February 21, 200719 yr but ie version 7 also had multiple tabs the heat was before ie 7 came along... before in ie6, there has no tabs, no rss, script blocker and all those stuff... so some people changed. also ie is infact using part of the windows explorer's parts, so somewhat more "unsafe" but after ie 7 come out, those people who had changed to firefox are still obsessed with firefox as they used to the old interface (ie: with big buttons)... or like anish00b had said, they like to download those add-on to slow down there browser... but ie has active-x already... yea, but it got less plugins like firefox does... anyways, if you are using firefox to play rs... not really recommend, but there isnt really a problem... if you are using firefox to browse the web... yea, maybe its some what better...

February 21, 200719 yr How is RS hard on FireFox? I use FF for RS and I have no problems at all. It runs smoother and more lag free than IE does. [Tip.It Mod][Retired][Add your Steam name here!]

February 21, 200719 yr Author i still dont get how ff is slightly harder i meen, u go 2 rs homepage clik on play select detail choose world and ur in how can that be any harder? Thanks SkyFleet for the awsome siggy!
February 21, 200719 yr i still dont get how ff is slightly harder i meen, u go 2 rs homepage clik on play select detail choose world and ur in how can that be any harder? not by that way... but if you think of that way, there is no difference between ie and firefox, so there isnt a need for you to switch... firefox uses more resources (ie: your ram) to load java apps, thats because ie is using some windows core parts to run... (of cause, you wont feel much difference, if your computer hardware is fairly modern) but for the same reason, it is said ie is not really a "web browser" (ie: html feeder) and firefox is "safer"... but mainly, people use firefox is because of its add-on, which isnt necessary for you to play rs...

February 21, 200719 yr Firefox you can choose your own skin and I think it is slightly faster than IE Chevroi - Formerly Japlin69My Old Blog

February 21, 200719 yr I am on the 2nd tab on IE atm. Runecsape in the other. It lags a little bit switching tabs, does FF do this? Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.
February 21, 200719 yr firefox is also less likely to catch viruses than ie because a lot of hackers send viruses through ie because millions of people are on ie daily, firefox isn't as popular so they dont bother to much yet. ~ Proud Father ~ Proud (Currently Deployed) Army National Guardsmen ~ Proud Lakota ~ Retired Tip.It Crew ~
February 21, 200719 yr y use a web browser to play rs when you have the official rs window client? - it runs really smooth on that... when it comes to browsing then i prefer using Opera... well everybody has his opinion :) Fletching/Fishing/Crafting/Firemaking/cooking cape owner
February 21, 200719 yr Firefox is known to have it's weaknesses, but i really think everyone should have it. Firefox is smoother, faster and better than ever. You can have cool things like ForcastFox, which tells you the weather anywhere in the world, you can get cool skins, ftp clients, spell checkers, everything! Trust me Firefox is the best and most valuable tool i have ever used, even my company use it. And, from what i've seen, so do Jagex. Merry Crimbo!Click on my signature to see my NEW blog!

February 21, 200719 yr FireFox, is a great browser, if prefer it over IE mainly because of Add-Ons and the look. With a few tweaks FireFox is an amazing browser, and the comment about FF using lots of memory can be fixed by changing one setting. You should try it its free. Also try Opera. Then just pick the one you like best.

February 21, 200719 yr I don't like FF or IE that much because I find them both to lag randomly or to be slow. I'm part of the 5%- of the population that preffers Netscape (which is like a weird version of FF). : This signature is intentionally left blank.
February 21, 200719 yr I don't like fire fox, its makes my comp while playing runescape laggy. So I had to remove it, IE7 FTW!!! \

February 21, 200719 yr When I play RS on FF, I lag really bad. IE7 FTW! (as CaptainKidd already said :P) There's cake through here, apparently.
