   Switching to Mozilla    
  I've noticed that alot of ppl in my surroundings have trouble switching to Mozilla. I have to tell then in detail how do would go and set it up. It didn't took me more then 5 minutes the first time. So I've written an small manual why to switch to Mozilla and how you do it. I would like some ppl to read it and point out some missing things/typo's/grammar mistakes/etc. Maybe you can rate my site too. It isn't the best site, but it does it function(Maybe wrong colors?). Anyway, go to http://home.wanadoo.nl/vdwillik/(Opens in new window) and click in the nav menu on Mozilla(Not the one in top left about the "best viewed"). I give just my site address since I want to save you guys my .TK popup ^_^[EDIT] Html mistake[/EDIT]Sand Hawk    -----------------Earth is 98% full.

  What I don''t like about Mozilla is the annoyingly long start-up time.  It takes like 10 full seconds at least on my computer, which is a P4 2.0 Ghz with 512MB of RDRAM.  There''s really no excuse for it to take a whole 10 seconds for me to see the window.  IE however starts almost instantly, so I use that.-=Lohrno  ;  There''s something called "quick start" (or something of the sort).  If that''s enabled (I believe the first time you exit, it asks you if you want it enabled), it''ll startup in no time flat.  Of course, that means parts of it will stay in memory (how do you think IE starts up so quickly?  It''s just a shell for Windows).  ;quote:Original post by Lohrno  What I don''t like about Mozilla is the annoyingly long start-up time.

IE however starts almost instantly, so I use that.  If you''re using Windows it has a ''quickload'' option that you could check during installation that makes Mozilla pre-load itself (this is what IE does to load quickly). It really doesn''t take too long to load, maybe 5 or 6 seconds, for me (Athlon 1.2 Ghz in Linux, with Mozilla 1.0), and it takes maybe 3 or 4 seconds on my mom''s machine (Duron 1.0 Ghz in Win2K, without quickload, with Mozilla 1.1).    ;  IE starts quickly because it''s always running. Sand_Hawk, you think Mozilla Classic looks better than Modern? Well, I guess there''s no disputing tastes. Your tut looks ok to me. You might want to provide a link to mozdev.org too. Lots of stuff there about XUL and customizing mozilla.  ;  But noone still hasn''t read my "tutorial" Sand Hawk    -----------------Earth is 98% full. Please delete anybody you can.My Site;  Personally, I love Mozilla. I tried it out a few times during 0.9x versions, but found them to be a bit to buggy to deal with. Then I downloaded the 1.0 version, when it came out, and now I never use IE, except for downloading attached files from hotmail, because MS has decided that it should only work in Explorer. What I like most about it is the tabs at the top, so you don''t have to mess up your taskbar when opening multiple webpages.If you''ve never used Mozilla, you should at least try it out once. Just go to http://www.mozilla.org    /John  ;quote:Original post by CmndrM  There''s something called "quick start" (or something of the sort).

Hmm, I''ll try that, being the impatient bastard that I am. -=Lohrno  ;  Hey, how do I get java working in Mozilla?I''ve installed the JRE a long time ago already in Windows, but Mozilla doesn''t use it, so how do I make it to?    ____________The StarCraft II Source: www.scii.org  ;  go to control panel->java plug-in 1.4->browser, then enable mozilla.    ____________________________________________________________www.elf-stone.com
