YesBut you know it makes sense.

Let me at the onset confess I am computer illiterate, more of a glunk than geek. Consequently when I come across something that makes life easier and is readily understandable I am delighted.

Microsoft released Internet Explorer 7.0 when they launched its Vista operating system. Windows XP users can now download an upgrade to install Internet Explorer 7. But yet again MSN are only trying to catch up with Mozilla’s Firefox Web browser. Where Firefox leads Explorer limps behind.

Firefox loads web pages much faster. I have to take the word of the experts, who say it is more secure than Explorer - something to do with the computer language used and protocols, and all that gumff. There are hundreds, nay thousands of geeks at this very moment working in support of Firefox developing add-ons to tweak Firefox to meet your personal requirements.

I know from personal experience Internet Explorer has limitations, Firefox does not have. For one thing, viewing this blog using Firefox you can see all singing all dancing slideshows click here for an example. Now it doesn’t matter how much I write about it, you will never know what you are missing until you experience it for yourself.

Look I tell you what I’ll do, I’ll give you a money back guarantee if you aren’t fully satisfied with Firefox- did I tell you it’s free to download!

YesBut what a disappointment.

In my blog YesBut a slideshow I described a method of incorporating a slideshow into a blog. I was particularly excited because I thought I had replaced my static blog title header with an all singing all dancing slideshow.

This week I had cause to use a borrowed computer; imagine my disappointment when I logged onto this blog not to see the slide show. Just a plain blue strip, as the photo on the left shows. It didn’t take me long to discover Internet Explorer doesn’t support a slideshow! It only opens using Firefox.

If you use Firefox, I hope you see the slideshow, please let me know.

I don’t know if the Mac browser supports a slide know, I would appreciate it if a Mac user would let me know.

What do you see at the top of this page - a blue strip or a slideshow?

And for those PC users who still use Internet Explorer, it doesn’t compare favourably with Mozilla’s Firefox. Why not download Firefox for free (Google “Firefox download” to the web address). Try it and see, you’ll never look back.
