Default OT: Spread Firefox
Time to ditch that huge wasteland of exploits and holes running on your computer and get a browser that will not infest your PC with viruses, trojans, spyware, adware, malicious advertisements, etc., etc., etc. That's right, I am talking about Internet Exploder. It is time to leave that sinking ship behind and move to a better browser.


Get Firefox

Firefox is rather feature-laden and highly customizable as well, not to mention standards-compliant, which Internet Exploder has never managed to be.

A small number of features are listed below, taken from the official Firefox web site.

Popup Blocking
Stop annoying popup ads in their tracks with Firefox's built in popup blocker.

Tabbed Browsing
View more than one web page in a single window with this time saving feature. Open links in the background so that they're ready for viewing when you're ready to read them. Find out more...

Privacy and Security
Built with your security in mind, Firefox keeps your computer safe from malicious spyware by not loading harmful ActiveX controls. A comprehensive set of privacy tools keep your Online activity your business.

It opens it in Firefox without issue for me. Are you using Trillian Basic? I have Pro, so maybe it is something they decided to fix only in the Pro Version...

Never used Opera... Firefox is a small (4.7 MB) download, so check it out. Probably sites you can find on Google that compare the two browsers. There is even a way to get the feature of Opera where your Last browsing session is saved when you reload the browser, using the Tabbrowser Extensions extension (not malformed grammar, I swear!).
