Browsers

Post by **Sethioz** » Sat Jul 28, 2007 6:25 pm

Ok heres something about the net browsers.
Avant - my primary web browser. It seems to work very well but sometimes it freezes. It shows most of the animations. flash, sounds etc..and its FAST too.
Netscape - Just good and fast browser. nothing much to say. I dont use it much.
FireFox - It has lot of add-ons and it can be used to hack. its also strong against crashing, but it does not show me half of the things. flash, drop-down boxes, smiley window etc... also my secondary.
Internet Explorer - total CRAP if u ask me !!!
Opera - never used.
You may use 2 options from list. 2 browsers u use most.

NOTE - this is extremely old topic and i no longer use avant. i use Opera and Chrome as my browsing browsers and Firefox for debugging and hacking.

I use firefox i really enjoy the fast surfing and loading . But there are enough browsers so everyone can find what they like

Post by **Sethioz** » Tue Jul 31, 2007 10:13 pm

i have that problem with firefox...it wont show some animations.
also takes longer to boot it up...netscape seem to be fastest to boot up.
..but indeed firefox is highly customizeable.

EDITED ok WTF is wrong with me ? i forgot to put Netscape. stupid me .. anyways now i use Netscape cuz avant really screwed me over...everything works just FINE with netscape now.

UPDATE: it seems that avant build 17 works better now...but we will see if its so ..

i hate firefox it's so freaking slow i don't get it what people see so good in it it also looks primitive.. but hey it's my opinion

Post by **Sethioz** » Fri Aug 24, 2007 11:55 am

EXACTLY!!! ...doesnt matter if its primitive or not ..but if its primitive then it should be FAST, but its not. takes like 5-6 times more time to boot up than avant or netscape.
browsing isnt so slow .. but booting it up takes ages. with proxy it works GREAT. better than other browsers, but this is only edge it got....actually not lol. it has a LOT of plugins....which can be used for hacking too.
it also has FTP plugin, switch browser type...etc. and lot more. i would actually use it IF i would be able to see java and flash with it !!! and i mean ALL OF IT.

EDITED: my stupid IE and/or avant gives me some stupid error.
''your security settings do not allow web sites to use activex controls installed on your computer.
this page may not display correctly. click here for options...''
when i click on this bar tht appears, nothing happens. it wont go away !!! and it is NOT my pc settings because those things works in FF and netscape. for example it wont show flash at all and some java...some idiotic microsoft shit again. im sure its just one file that has error...some .dll. but microsoft ''professionals'' r so pros tht they never know whts wrong...

Weird i see everything whit firefox ? Is it me or my firefox has gone mad . Whatever it is some hate it some dont

Post by **Sethioz** » Tue Aug 28, 2007 8:42 pm

yea well my fire wont show half of things...
parexa u should make video out of it .. and show me how it shows ALL things.

Skizoteq · Post by **Skizoteq** » Thu Dec 06, 2007 9:18 am

Could it be java

Or meybe you have some stuff missing .

Post by **Sethioz** » Thu Dec 06, 2007 10:27 am

actually it was my firewall ... its wierd you know.
ZonaAlarm firewall effects FireFox and Netscape, but not avant or IE.
this is what ive been telling you all about ..microsoft software is a piece of spying stuff...it bypasses most things...
For example:
zonealarm has privacy and security settings that can block .. java, images, animations..etc. Once i turn them on .. it will block those items in firefox and netspace, but not in avant.
This is y i didnt saw them in firefox.

BUT one problem remains .. actually 2. go to http://sethioz.com and look at the CHATBOX. It should have bluebars where the name is .. but with firefox i cant see them .. firefox also doesnt show the CLOCK. Here i will make screenshot with avant and show you what firefox doesnt show.

This is how it should look like, but firefox is NOT showing clock and those bluebars on chatbox.

omfg avant sucks so badly !!! including IE, because avant is IE based.
ill give you noobz an example (noobz who use avant or ie)

here's 2 screens. one is taken when using FireFox and other is made when using avant. see how avant just FUCKS UP the stuff !! it does that with everything ! it simply fucks up the code ! its a iframe im using there, but nOOooOO avant just cant show it normally.
NOTE!!! image quality and color is different because one is jpg other is png (png is taken with firefox's screengabber. so some retard wont say that its different place, its the same place !

Post by **Sethioz** » Fri Oct 31, 2008 3:15 am

Here's another example how dumb avant is:
upper image is taken when using avant, below is the image when using firefox.
why does avant fuck up everything ?
Also video player on my site does not work when using avant, because this piece of shit wants to download the playlist file LOL

i use fire fox , for everything, and it pretty fast

Post by **Sethioz** » Sun Nov 02, 2008 4:15 pm

ofcourse its FAST and you can pretty much change anything by going onto to "about:config" page.
actually plugins make firefox superiour web browser.
AdBlock Plus, tamper data, popup blockers, stealther, cookie editor...etc. also it has all kinds of support for FTP and other protocols. I wouldnt be surprised if there will be FireFox OS soon hehe. I can basically use FireFox to even hack a site or forum. it has all the necessery plugins to do so.

Post by **bloodyking** » Sun Nov 02, 2008 4:24 pm

my computer teacher told me that a new firefox coming out, firedog are something like that, going to be the best web brower there is

Post by **Sethioz** » Sun Nov 02, 2008 4:49 pm

well firefox 3 sucks totally. i can't use half of my plugins with it. I only use firefox because of the plugins. Also its easier to clean history, cookies..etc.
In browsers like netscape, IE, avant..etc you cant really customize anything and to add a blocked item ..it takes you forever. in firefox's addon "adblock plus" you simply right click the item and add it. takes 10 times less time than in other browsers.
forgot to mention the tempomail addon. its really AWSOME plugin. and ofcourse things like drag&drop support for everything. i can drag and drop images onto desktop, so i dont have to save image as...etc. i can also upload items by simply dragging them into the upload box. i can also use image zoom inside browser and much, much more.
screengrab is also VERY useful. i can either save whole page as image or selected area (area i select). and all that can be done with 1-3 clicks. It even has youtube uploader hehe. and the gmail storage plugin, which allows you to store things on a gmail account (but usuall this account gets banned, if you store too much).

there's just too many plugins to mention them all.

Hmmm I personaly use Firefox, mostly because of the add-ons etc
Try Opera, in a test I saw that it's the fastest browser, dunno about boot up, but sure faster than firefox ^^, but somehow opera seems gay to me

Internet Explorer boots up pretty fast because it's integrated into windows

Post by **Sethioz** » Sun Nov 23, 2008 11:13 pm

been using firefox for at least 2 years. i do have avant too (for some gay sites that screw up when they cant track you or something..) for example my firefox has custom headers and such, so some sites whine about it. like gamecopyworld, i cant download shit from there. it gives some errors and says that some referral is missing..blablabla. so i use avant on such sites, but fortunetly there's not much of them.
FireFox is simply the BEST, because you can customize pretty much anything you like and you can use it to hack sites

V · Post by V » Tue Jul 07, 2009 2:17 pm

Just today I updated my firefox 2 to firefox 3.5, only time will show if it was worth it too. I've heard some horror stories about firefox 3, how slow it is and how nothing works on it and so on. So far it works nicely, even got my stealher working, which didn't seem to work with firefox 2 anymore

shadowslash657 · Post by **shadowslash657** » Sat Feb 13, 2010 11:06 am

bleh, i got mine to v3.6 and guess what? yeah, most of the addons work. but what makes me mad is my cookieswap addon dosent work it allowed me to have set cookie profiles, so i could be on more then one email/fourm/etc. at once. bascily i couldent be baned from a fourm, dident even have to clear cash or anything .-.

Post by **Sethioz** » Sat Feb 13, 2010 11:16 pm

im still on FireFox 2.0.0.18. works perfectly. some websites, like myspace, are fucking it up, but im too smart for that :)
if you go to myspace with this version, it says something really retarded, that you need modern browser to use myspace, but its just some retardness, there are no features that doesn't work with my older FF, so i simply change the user agent info it sends to site and thats all (using the user agent switcher addon).

firefox is the best browser and the adds one are very useful

Post by **Sethioz** » Fri Feb 19, 2010 11:51 pm

firefox alone is not the best, this is what most ppl do not understand, if somebody says "firefox is best" then they try and are like WTF its crap, its not the browser that is good, its the compatibility with addons. addons are what makes it perfect and better than any other browser in world.
if you know what addons you need and what makes it good, then its perfect.

heebakutty · Post by **heebakutty** » Thu Aug 25, 2011 5:18 am

yes sure google Chrome is the best browser, when i was using chrome, my internet browsing was running at a lighting speed, i even checked my speed
http://www.ip-details.com/internet-speed-test/
and it was normal subscribed 5Mbps, i was using firefox which chocked my browsing capabilities .
But the only one advantage with firefox is that it has more add ons, which makes things much easier

destroyerwin · Post by **destroyerwin** » Sat Aug 27, 2011 2:46 am

what brower i used eh...
firefox for playing around on the internet such as when using it on chat sites, watch movies, downloading anything
google crome when doing serious work such as for school, work related things
Internet explorer for desperate times when none of the 2 things above doesn't work

thefinalrune · Post by **thefinalrune** » Wed Sep 14, 2011 9:00 pm

I'm almost primarily a Firefox user, but I also switch between it and Chrome depending on my needs. Initially I used Firefox almost exclusively because of its addon compatibilities. Addons like AdBlocker Plus, WebDeveloper and Firebug made my day. Since my main introduction (but far from my initial beginnings) into the web began more or less with my first exposure to MySpace, I quickly found myself in need of addons that allowed me to edit HTML and CSS on the fly, which Firefox offered.

Now that those days are behind me I prefer Firefox over Chrome, but only from a purely familiarity standpoint. In a head to head comparison, Chrome is generally the better browser for my needs, but its still not as user modification friendly as Firefox is.

Each browser is good for different things, it just depends on what you are doing. Firefox is great for developers , its open source and provides a rich libaray of extentions for developing /Debugging web apps. My favorite browser was Firefox for a while , i recently switched to opera for a few reasons.
For one it has a built in E-mail client which no other browser has , I find it very useful.
Opera also has a built in Internet Relay Client (IRC) which is nice

Post by **Sethioz** » Wed Sep 28, 2011 5:26 pm

im sure firefox ass add-ons that can do that. i dont trust anything else, but firefox. stealther is a MUST HAVE for me. i cant stand some 3rd party sites sticking their cookies in my jar. when i browser without stealther, then after few mins size of cookie folder is like 50mb, which never gets deleted in normal user's computer.

Post by **Sethioz** » Sun Nov 04, 2012 6:44 pm

Lately i started using Opera as my primary, because firefox completely fucked up after flash update and it was "forced" update. it kept popping up that annoying fucking crappy notice and it pissed me off so i updated flash and now it keeps crashing like 10 times a day or even more, i mean really it does crash that much, im not overreacting + every time i close / exit firefox, it crashes. ive sent report every time .. no fix.
useless.

i still like firefox, because im so used to it, but mainly because of all the cool plugins / extension.

but reason why im using Opera now, is that it also has some very good extensions, it can also debug a website using "inspect" function, which is really cool.
i also find "Ghostely" very useful, it blocks out 3rd party shit from websites, such as twitter feeds, facebook like things, google analytics..etc, i don't like to be tracked when browsing, so its very handy tool. also it won't allow cookies from those 3rd party sites, but it does allow facebook obviously, just not via other websites, if you go to sethioz.com and you have not configured ghostely to allow them, then my facebook and twitter buttons on main page won't show.

in other words, seems like Opera is almost like firefox now, i haven't digged around much, but im sure it has more cool extensions.
and on top of that, newest firefox is useless, i absolutely hate it, interface is horrible ..etc. im still using version 3 firefox (latest 3). anything later than that, is crap.

Post by **Legu** » Sun Nov 04, 2012 7:04 pm

First i used Firefox (normal one) because it was way quicker than ie. Then i used chrome cuz it was quicker than firefox. Nowadays im using "nightly" (firefox) because for me it seems to be even quicker than chrome has a better design and ofc more addons aswell. But basicly im only interested in speed.

--> i had the flash shit aswell but now it seems to work somehow...

Post by **Sethioz** » Mon Nov 05, 2012 12:43 am

whenever people say "better browser" they don't usually even know wtf they talking about.

reason why i use firefox, is because of the addons. there is no other browser that can be used to exploit and hack websites. I use firefox to debug websites + all the cool addons that give me so many features that normal people can't even imagine about.

- i can see country flag next to URL so i know where site is hosted
- one click whois search for current domain name
- IP of visiting URL - i can see IP of website i visit
- foxclocks - really cool thing, i can see all the world times using that gadget
- 1 click proxy enabler/disabler/selector - i can easily enable / disable proxy or choose one from list (i use proxies a lot, so its MUST HAVE for me)
- firebug - for debugging websites (dragon fly in opera is similar)
- stealther - blocks everything i don't want. cookies, downloads, history..etc (i only allow downloads and cookies on sites i specify)
- adblocker + popup blocker - must have for me
- drag n drop upload - another must have for me, instead of browsing into my pc, i just drag n drop file i want to upload into upload field on any site and it uploads.
- image scaler - i can scale any image on website, by just right clicking on it and choose from options or use scroll.
- image downloader - another MUST have for me, i can right click download any image (even from websites that won't allow right clicks)
- tempomail - allows me to create "fake" email within few seconds and 2 clicks. makes temporary email that forwards emails to my account for 4h - 1 month time, then it destroys itself. very useful for those RETARDED sites where you just dont want to signup just to get ONE damn file and later they keep on spamming you.
.... and so, so many others that i need.

so basically i still use firefox, but i just use opera for my own stuff, its annoying when firefox crashes when im writing email, or forum post..etc

Post by **Legu** » Mon Nov 05, 2012 7:58 pm

"tempomail" o_O smt like this does exist? I must test this...

Post by **Sethioz** » Mon Dec 31, 2012 9:39 am

I installed Chrome and i actually like it, because it has same cool extensions that Opera has.
I still prefer Firefox, because it has unmatched add-ons / extensions, but Opera and Chrome are good for browsing (checking messages, uploading ..etc)
The extensions i use on Opera and Chrome are "Ghostery" and "AdBlock Plus / AdBlock"
there are just must have, apart from that i don't really care about browsers.

There is a conspiracy by google/youtube tho, i noticed that youtube lags when using any other browser than Chrome. i mean not bad, but it is slower. even if i scroll thru videos, other browsers lag. This is NOT because chrome is superiour, it is just a conspiracy and is designed to lag in other browsers.

Anyway, i think that nowdays you can't get along with a single browser anymore, because so many companys put out such retarded conspiracies that fuck you over and force you to use some dumb shit.
I got chrome, because in youtube "custom thumbnail" option is missing and i don't think they plan on "fixing" it, im sure its because im not using chrome. i still haven't tested it, but im sure with chrome its all there.

UPDATE:
Chrome is actually really faster than other browsers, not sure how or why, maybe it has something to do with Chrome taking up 200 - 500mb of RAM
it also has different colors, i mean my website colors don't look exactly same as they are in Opera or Firefox.
I kind a start to like it, but it doesn't have "speed dial" like Opera has, i really like speed dial in opera.
