I used to prefer FireFox on my PC, but I switched to an IMAC recently and am finding that I love Safari.

I used to strictly use firefox but then one day it just STOPED retaining my bookmarks and profile info. It has the best selection of addons and such also but no ammount of uninstalling reinstalling solved the bookmarks/profile losses. So I exported everything to opera.

My BF had been using opera for a while now and I loved the idea of being able to close the browser and it still retaining my tabs so I mostly use opera now. But there seem to be many sites that just don't work well with it.

Opera is my default

Firefox when opera cant handle some java or whatever

IE only kept for use when none of the others work lol.

Im a die hard Firefox surfer. I just downloaded Firefox3 and it is SO much faster than the previous versions. The only thing I miss is my neopets toolbar. Yeah I play neopets.

I considered Opera when I first cured my IE affliction but I didnt know anything about it.

My son keeps telling me to try firefox 3, but I haven't yet I am so disapointed with firefox right now cause I lost a huge collection of bookmarks thankfully I was able to recover most of them but not all.

For our desktop (PC) we use IE but only cause I'm lazy and hardly use it anymore so I haven't changed it. DH doesn't know what he's doing and freaks with the updates so I hesitate to change it for that reason too. On my laptop (Mac/work related) I use Safari. Started using Firefox and then started having problems with it after it had worked great for awhile. Got tired of everything freezing up on me so I'd have to Force Quit everything and start over. Very frustrating so I went back to Safari and haven't had any problems since. I did prefer Firefox once I got the hang of it but don't like that it got temperamental on me!

I just love Firefox 3.01 with lots of add ons. Favourite add on? I really like NoScript, Colorful Tabs, Piclens and FoxClocks. I only use IE now for the monthly security downloads from MS.

At home I primarily use Firefox 3.03.

At clients homes I mostly use IE 6 or 7 depending on what they have installed on their Windows based systems.

Safari if on MAC's

However, if I am having troubles getting anything else to work I keep a copy of Opera on my thumb drive as well :thumbup:

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
