jaguars4ever Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Multiple windows dramatically increase memory usage as opposed to multiple tabs. Plus, tabs are totally sweet and awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyCrimson Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 Never had a problem with the memory thing. “Things are as they are.

Deraldin Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I use Firefox. Don't use Adblock as I never get ads without it, so why add it in? I just set Firefox to block pop-ups itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkan Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 I use Firefox. Don't use Adblock as I never get ads without it, so why add it in? I just set Firefox to block pop-ups itself. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> HOW? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I never got ads either. I'm using IE7. tabs, no popups, clean UI. "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." - Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials "I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metadigital Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 My Firefox installation is so tightly managed that I have to give permission to download anything: I haven't seen an advert for the longest time (apart from when I use IE for mail, because Yahoo hasn't added support for other browsers to edit webmail in rich text :angry:). Opera is the best browser, though, I reckon, and Firefox is a close second because it allows total customizability. And Plus, tabs are totally sweet and awesome. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If you ain't using tabs, then you don't know what you are missing: truly, there is a (small) learning curve, but I can keep two browser windows open, one with all the references I check (dictionary.com, wikipedia, etc) and one with all the fora to post in. That way I can instantly alt-tab (read: flip-out) between reference and post!
