I never said there was anything "Wrong" with Mozilla, I'm just stating that as a network manager, I've seen issues with that and Netscape on my network, whereas, IE has given us far fewer issues. Granted, M$ has it's problems, they all do. But, based on my too many years in networking, IE simply works better than the others. Hence, the reason that thus far the world uses IE.

Tim is correct, in my humble opinon, as stated above.

Very well put.  Thank you for backing me up with your expertise.

[QUOTE=thestub]Try, it loads slower - but once it is up and running it renders pages far faster than IE. And it has little features that IE needs to have.

In this, as in all things, it is a choice not a compromise. I just can't get on with IE (and I was an IE user until Mozilla 1.4 was released!).

I actually like the fact that Mozilla correctly (yes correctly - it may not look like the author inteded, but it is what he asked for) renders badly written sites - if all the browsers did then people would be forced to write correct code! That is the engineer in me - if you are going to do it, do it right.

Lots of the little niggles with Mozilla are fixed in the development build (FireFox, ne FireBird) - that loads fast, renders pages EXCEPTIONALLY quickly, and has all the nice extra features of full Mozilla!

As I said, it is a choice, not a compromise - like choosing Tama over Pearl![/QUOTE]

It is this very reason that makes Internet Explorer's most current version and a few prior far superior to anything and everything else.

We (Our IT group) have 17 servers, running all the OS's out there for one program or another, and have close to 2000 pc's on the network now. I can't even count the routers and switches any more. MY network section spans California...OUR network spans the globe with 20+ countries. The group just in the USA involves over 20 IT guys and is from the left side to the right side and from top to bottom. We've a pretty nice network. A "TRUE" WAN system. 90% of it is all Token ring topology.

Our back-up is a constant stratagy, our catastrophic recovery would be days.
