I've got to download some stuff from the net and I've got the choice of using the Explorer and Firefox browsers on the same machine...
What I would like to know is does the browser effect the speed of the download in any way(will the dload be quicker if I use,say, Firefox for this because it's better programmed then the Explorer or something)? I'll be doing this on a public comp so the speed of the dload is important to me.Thx.

Firefox is lauded by fans for its download speed and a superior user interface, and users say that its pop-up blocker is one of the best out there.
:balloon2:
I can't really tell the difference in speed, but FF makes it safer, too.
Guess what I'll be saying..
Maxthon Rulez, Ownz and Folds into Seven !! :2thumbsup:
Opera is the best one...
New IE 7 is kind of weird too.
Ignore the heathens. Firefox is the one true browser. Users of IE will be cast into the lake of fire when the seventh seal is broken.
Faster browsing? Probably Firefox. Faster Downloads? It probably doesnt matter. Regardless, Firefox is still the superiour browser- it's safer and far more customizable. :bow:Quote:
