Odd problems with Internet Explorer

Just a quick note to say that I'm aware of a few width-related issues when viewing the site in Internet Explorer on small screen resolutions - I'm working on a fix and will sort it ASAP. Funnily enough the site looks fine in Firefox Rolling Eyes

I have started using Firefox and also Thunderbird from Mozilla as my browser and email client. Have been having some problems with the Thunderbird set-uop as it doesn't like accessing my Wanadoo account.
I have suffered much less with popups and Spam since going over to them.
Martin have you had found any websites that Firefox cannot cope with yet? So far I have only found one I think.
For those of you stuck with Interent Explorer and Outlook try a test run on Firfox and Thunderbird, firefox seems to download webpages much faster than IE.
I have just gone over from dial-up to broadband and ran Firefox for a year on the dialup - it is noticably faster on a dialup

I started using Firefox because IE started to "hang" for 4 or 5 seconds when loading pages, but only on the connection here in Cambridge Confused

Firefox has been great so far, it'll do 99% of sites - there are some sites which don't work (usually ones that use a lot of JavaScript), but a switch back to IE (and the hanging) sorts them.

The tabbed browsing is very very handy. Apparently the next version of IE will be copying it Rolling Eyes

I listened to a very interesting bit on Radio4 last night on my way home from the airport regarding the Brazilian Government now insisting that all state purchased computers are to be operated using shareware downloaded for free from the web instead of Windows.......... they are paying Bill Gates $250 per workstation for licence fees and that is hindering them from spreading their networks nationwide. It was also mentioned that the German Governement has decreed the same as have several major governments.......... Microsoft has also failed to comply with a directive that lapsed on 31st May 2005 from the EU regarding bundled MS software and not including software from other manufacturers.
