Internet Browser

Postby Martin Spamer » Wed Mar 03, 2010 1:40 pm

If you are running Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 and have been using Microsoft Internet Explorer as your default Internet Browser then over the next few days you will be offered the choice of what Internet Browser to use. This is a result of Microsoft being ruled a monopoly and agreeing to give people a choice of Internet Browser.

I recommend you change your Browser for security reasons, the default Microsoft Browser is at risk from all sorts of malicious software found on the internet. I have always recommended using Firefox for security reasons.

This website has been tested will work fine with any of the following. I've listed them below in the order of my own personal preference but they are all first class choices.

1) Firefox - security, stability, lots of free extensions.
2) Google Chrome - fastest, stable, maximum viewing area,
3) Safari - fast, large viewing area
4) Opera - fast, large viewing area, ideal for low power computers.

(This website should work fine with any standard Internet Browser, I just cannot test them all).

It's generally a good idea to have two browsers installed in case you have a problem with one you can still use the other to access the internet and download fixes. I leave Microsoft Internet Explorer installed and just use it to download updates from the Microsoft site and use Firefox on a day to day basis.
