What browser do you use?

I am obviously not technologically savvy.

Firefox suddenly stopped working on my computer. I click on it, it lights up like it's going to open, and then nothing.

I started using Google Chrome. The problem is, it doesn't allow any pop ups. I don't know how to fix it. But I can't PIP or do emoticons.

So I tried Explorer and that will work but I feel like it's 2001.

Re: What browser do you use?

  • At work I use firefox, but at home I have a Mac so I use Safari. Sorry I can't be of much help. Have you tried uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling?

  • Firefox for both my home PC and work Mac.

    Ditto mfmenchi - Try uninstalling it and reinstalling. Maybe a file became corrupt and it can't open?

  • Thanks ladies, that's what I'll try. I've had FF on all of my computers since Freshman year of college, and I don't like any other browsers.
  • I've had Firefox on my Powerbook since college, but it became corrupt and messed up my laptop so I never got it back. My iMac is my favorite new gizmo so I don't want to take the chance with FF on it. If you're use to FF though, then definitely try uninstalling. It's your best bet, plus you'll get the latest version.

  • I use Google Chrome at work. I like it but like LadyE said, I can't do any emoticons and I can't bold/underline things in posts (which is sometimes really annoying). Never tried to PIP. At home we use Firefox. Can't say that we've had many problems with it.

    Yes! I forgot about the no bolding. Ugh, it is so annoying.

    And I'm too computer stupid to figure out how to uninstall Firefox so I'm going to need to get DH to do it tonight. 

  • I use Firefox usually.

  • if you go to the firefox site and just redownload it, it shouldn't matter that the existing copy is still on the computer.

    Click on Start, then Control Panel, then add or remove programs.
