Science is the work of the devil!
Slight problem with firefox - it doesn't (as far as I can tell) allow integration of DAP8, how do I restore IE to default browser and still keep FF for when its needed?
The video is now on youtube: "nuts flying squirrel".
Firefox allows the reverse: If you get the extension "IE VIEW" ,you can right click on an option to open current page in IE. That way you never need IE as default browser.
Great idea - if only it worked!!!
Downloaded and installed extension and restarted firefox - no IE view icon, rebooted - still no IE view icon!!! So how do I fix this browser that is "not broken"?!

And apparently firefox is worth precisely what it cost!!!!!
It is the default browser - that's the whole problem!!!
Its a real PITA that I can see no way to integrate Speedbit DAP8 download manager into FF the same was it does with IE. If someone posts a link to a pdf, DAP automatically accelerates the download and I can specify which folder - FF opens the pdf instead of downloading it like I want (I wouldn't have clicked the link otherwise!) and if I select the pulldown to save as FF dumps it on the desktop so I have to keep weeding the desktop into my save folder - I want a direct connection to the person who suggested I install FF, so I can plug the cable into the wall socket and destroy their computer!!!!!!!!!!
In Firefox...

Every time I go down to the Harbor Freight store I look at them and say, do i really need one or want one. Well I guess I want to play with one. They are $2.50, I mean what am I waiting for???

Doesn't matter now I uninstalled it - thank god for system restore, uninstalling FF trashed IE and left me with no browser at all!!!
There are a few rare occasions where FF will work where IE won't, but on the whole FF is worth precisely what it cost!!!

I've been very happy with it, particularly to nice extensions like "NoScript".
I only use IE when some piece-a-crap software requires IE for installation.
What operating system are you using?

XP-Pro
Maplin were charging £5 - and that was supposed to be special offer, what a rip!!!
Hmmm? I'm using FF on four machines, three are Win2K-Pro, one is XP-Home. Nary a problem.

Maybe it's XP-Pro ?:-)
What do lurkers here think of XP-Pro? Is it worth upgrading to?
