Just when I think I'm ready to make a decision on a useful bRowser, the one I choose blows it!!
OS-wise its XP-SP3 and likely to so remain until I change computer.

My main issue with Firefox is that it won't play embedded MP3 files UNLESS Quicktime is installed - I can't stand QUicktime 'cause once you've got it, it's almost impossible to eradicate. Firefox will play embedded WMA files using WMPlayer. There is supposed to be an add-on for Firefox to play embedded MP3s with WMP...but I can't get it to work. I use FF 3.6.7 - any higher than 3.7 then FF stalls me with "unresponsive scripts" which I haven't been able to solve, and is slower to get to work than a bureaucrat on the public purse.

Current problem: FF asked me to upgrade Adobe Flash to 10.1.85x. I did, so far so good. Turned off and rebooted puter.

I also upgraded IE7 to 8 and then thought I should give it a try after rebooting - may as well have both BOWSERS working. Loose term "working" . So I decided to visit PG using IE8. It tells me that PG Music wants me to install Adobe Flash add-on! HUH? $%#@ But I just did, you moron!! Why can't you tell that??? Does each BOWSER want it's own version now?

Anyone know what's going on?? The funny thing is that this is on Music Computer, so I seldom go on-line except for music issues. Sheesh.
