I use FF bare (no plugins)       in Vista, XP Pro, and Home, and have no problems per se. However, some       sites STILL do not render as they do in IE7. I realize there are       plugins for FF that emulate the active scripting of IE, but I prefer to       run bare. When I hit one of those sites, I either skip it, or go over       to IE JUST for that site.              Remember, however----YMMV!              --       Thieves get rich and saints get shot, and God don't answer prayers a lot.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
