bearskin Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 just out of curosity why are the players different...isn't this what CNN uses or are these modified for the browser? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
screi Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 good question...not sure of the answer...but i have noticed the same thing...the media player in my FF(1.5) is a bit slow to load and "glitchy" and since i don't use ie much anymore it took a while to notice the difference...but for me the player in ie works better and faster...btw..what do you think of the pipeline subscription...i'm just about out of time on the free trial and i'm still not sure it's worth the couple of bucks a month...??

xxkbxx Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 That's the only reason to use IE before Firefox - some websites just plainly don't work with FF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mainter Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 That's the only reason to use IE before Firefox - some websites just plainly don't work with FFwell there is an extention for FF that you can download called IE tab you add certain websites to the options and it will open in IE when you enter that link or you can just right click the link to open in IE https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/morei...ication=firefox Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mainter Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 (edited) the new version of firefox has a major memory leak in it ver: 1.5 it ate 478MB of ram in 4 hours i closed it but it stayed running in the background im pretty disappointed there is a fix that firefox tweakers made but it does not work Edited February 1, 2006 by Mainter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
