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.

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:

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
