Use Firefox man it is free after using it u will forget all other browsers



Mozilla Firefox - faster, more secure, easier to use and sporting a new look, this latest Firefox release sets a new standard for web browser innovation. Mozilla Firefox project (formerly Firebird, which was formerly Phoenix) is a redesign of Mozilla's browser component, written using the XUL user interface language and designed to be cross-platform. It is small, fast and easy to use, and offers many advantages over other web browsers, such as the tabbed browsing and the ability to block pop-up windows.



Features in Firefox include:



- Easy migration: Switching to Firefox has never been easier now that Firefox imports data like Favorites, history, settings, cookies and passwords from Internet Explorer. Firefox can also import settings from Mozilla 1.x, Netscape and Opera.



- Smaller Download: Continuing efforts to make this the most efficient browser, the Windows version of Firefox is now only a 4.9 MB download, making downloading Firefox a breeze for dial-up and broadband users alike.



- New Default Theme: A new default theme provides a bright new look for Windows and Linux users.



SmartUpdate: A new SmartUpdate feature notifies users of new versions of Firefox to ensure that the browser is always up to date.



- Help: A new online help system makes this one powerful, friendly browser.



- Extension/Theme Manager: New Extension and Theme Managers provide a convenient and secure way to manage and update the hundreds of add-ons that set Firefox apart from other browsers.



Mozilla Firefox also includes numerous bug fixes and incremental improvements, including faster page load speed.



- 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.



- Smarter Search: Google Search is built right into the toolbar, and there are a plethora of other search tools including Keywords (type "dict " in the Location Bar), and FastFind (start typing the first few letters of some text in the page and Firefox takes you there).

Just download the newest version of mozilla, the out of the box settings are standard and display everythign identical to IE and opera on my computer. Maybe somethign inadvertantly changed a setting and rather then go and find the change it would probably be quicker to update the browser and go again.

May be you have changed your javascript settings?

Please mention your Mozilla version (Goto Help > About Mozilla)



If you dont have any extensions/themes installed you can try deleting your Profile directory when Mozilla is not running. This will create a new default Profile and you can go from there...

Popup Blocker:

Spend time surfing the Internet and you know about pop-up advertisements, small windows that open automatically to promote Web sites or products. Some pop-ups are benign; others more malevolent, spawning new pop-ups as quickly as you can close them – causing your Internet connection to slow dramatically as your browser tries to load all the unwanted incoming data.



With the Popup Blocker, you can block these pop-up Web pages, often shutting them down before you are aware of them. It also filters many Web page graphical advertisements on the pages you visit. Preventing these ads speeds your Web page loading times dramatically by cutting out the content you don’t need while leaving the information you do.



The Popup Blocker is installed into the System Tray where you can manage popups as you surf the Internet.



To enable the Popup Blocker tool:

Check the Enable System Mechanic Popup Blocker tool check box.

To add a window title rule to the Black List:

Click Add and the Black List - Add new Popup Window Title Rule window appears. Active browser window titles are listed in the large box.



Type the name of a window to block in the empty text box.





Note: When adding an open popup to your Black list, the popup window closes immediately and is prevented from appearing in the future. It also adds the browser name to the list. This only works if you use one Web browser. To block that popup from all browsers and website is blocked you use, add a new rule to the list.





Enabling Homepage Guard will keep your Internet home page from changing without your knowledge. It stops malware, adware, viruses and other Web sites from taking you anywhere you do not want to go.



Enabling Search Page Guard keeps your Internet search page from changing without your knowledge. It stops malware, adware, viruses and other Web sites from taking you anywhere you do not want to go.
