[neoquote=#1.0 by nocture]Use AVANT BROWSER... Mix of Internet Explorer and Opera [URL=http://www.avantbrowser.com]avantbrowser.com[/URL] And it can use MS java, instead of Sun's ugly one[/neoquote] Well, seeing as how Opera uses the PROPER version of Java, the official one from Sun Microsystems, and not the one from M$ that has proprietary extensions that Sun DOES NOT APPROVE OF! Therefore I will use Opera!!!

Unless you refuse to update to newer service packs for your Windows OS, you can say goodbye to MS java.

Err.. I wouldn't say Avant is a mix of Opera and IE, since it is based solely on IE. So you get the same security flaws, etc that you get with IE.. whoo..

Why would i want MS Java ROFLMFAO

Why would i want SUN Java ROFLMFAO

[neoquote=#1.6 by Jason]Why would i want SUN Java ROFLMFAO [/neoquote] Maybe because it's the real Java and not some old ass propietary version that MS ships. But then again, if you're satisfied with crap, then you might as well stick with it.

Why would i want some coffee beans ROFLMAO *on a serious note, Opera is fine i think, not that great..until MS releases a tabbed browser
