why ie6 is crap

I've got a corrupt install of ie6 - it ain't easy to try to fix it. I have lately been using the mozilla browser which is miles better than IE6. Mozilla and firebird have tabbed browsing and popup killers.


I've also found a lighter version which seems to be a bit faster - mozillafirebird


The browser comes with extension which greatly increase the functionality of it.

I particularly like the downloadsort and mycroft extensions

Mycroft helps you search and with the sidebar you have a very useful search engine.
My main problem with the mozilla browser is some stuttering downloads (or even sticking) on some pages but over all it is much more useful.
Also I had to change some of the html on my pages because they looked diff in the 2 browsers.

IE6 is now just another backup - roboform I hope will work in the future with firebird.
