    Re: Im PC challanged..... Firefox help!

    I love Firefox, it's so flexible and there is a ton of add-ons for it.

    You can right click say your "home" or "Refresh" button and click customize, and add all or remove all the buttons that you need.

    If hold down CTRL before you click in any link, it will open the link in a new tab, I've always love that, and Firefox had that ability way long Before Internet Explorer did.

    Google might be awesome, but I dont think as highly of Google Chrome.

    And SSSSHHHHH! dont tell people about the spelling check!

    I don't really like chrome all that much either.

    Spell check saves my life.

    If you center click (scroll button) that also opens a link in a new tab. Opening up a blank new tank is ctrl T, opening up your most recently closed tab is ctrl shift T.

    Those are some of my favorite shortcuts.

    Just playing devil's advocate here... People are so concerned about Google having our information. What about Microsoft? How much of your information do you think THEY have? I'm sure that if you're using a PC, they have more than Google will EVER have on us...

    Re: Im PC challanged..... Firefox help!

    Who cares if google has your search history? Are you searching for things you shouldn't be??? And if you are afraid of some company having your search history, bing is not any different, its just a crappier search engine.

    Google is not evil. I have an android phone and I will surely be trying out the new OS when it comes out.
