ok.. i have a few browsers that were installed with RedHat.. the only one decent enough is Mozilla.. but it sucks. (maybe its just me??)
so what do you use?
Im downloading opera now.. I think that seemed to be the best looking one.

dont try it.. cruz is right.. it blows... for instance.. dfwstangs... the fonts are all messed up compared to the size of what they should be... total crap.
but then again.. the problem i have with mozilla.. is ... i can type in an address.. hit enter.. and it will take me to a tottaly diffrent web page... i.e. I clicked on the www.mozilla.org link that was posted.. it took me to www.altell.com which was a page that i looked at the day before :confused: oh well..

I've never had any wierd problems with mozilla, except when I was running an OLD version in enlightenmnet, when I would switch desktops, sometimes it wouldnt let me type in mozilla, all I had to do was change right fast.

Mozilla works very well for me on RH9.
Mozilla = Netscape

No, Netscape = Bloated Mozilla.
I'm going to give FireBird a try. I'm hoping they've gotten around to fixing the CSS problems, where it's not rendering things quite right. That's been my only gripe about Mozilla, and the only reason I've not bothered to use it.

This sometimes happens sometimes doesnt. When I switch between desktops then go back to Mozilla I loose keyboard just for mozilla. If I Left Click on desktop (bring up the enlightenment menu) then go back to mozilla it works. :confused:
Running 0.16.5-1.

I heard that Mozilla Firebird is great once you get it set up right.
