Which internet browser is the best? Firefox, IE, Opera, Safari or Netscape?

Browser, Download March 25th, 2008

So which browser is the best one? Is it a taste matter? Maybe.

The best browser for me is Firefox, because of all the plugins you can install on it, it is fast and secure.

Internet explorer has changed in the past, it was a very unsecure browser but techies say that the new IE 7 is better than it’s predecessors, could be, i only use IE for some secure transactions because it doesn’t work with any other browser.

Opera is a good browser, it is fast, has all that you need and you can install plugins too, you also have a “Speed Dial” where you can add 9 of your favorite websites after that you can open them very fast an easy in a new window.

Safari isn’t so good because it’s still in beta and it won’t work with all the websites, sometimes it gives me some errors, i don’t know why, the good thing in Safari is that the websites look very smooth.

Hmm, about Netscape, i haven’t used it a long while now and i don’t know much about it, maybe one of the readers will say something about it.

Let’s start with the download links for the browsers :

1. Firefox 2.0.0.12 for Windows, English (US) (5.7MB)

2. Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP SP2, English (14.7 MB)

3. Opera 9.26 for Windows (6.4 MB)

4. Safari 3.1 for Windows XP or Vista (18.6MB)

5. Netscape Navigator 9 for Windows XP (5.9MB) 

Enjoy Browsing the internet!

Free Download Manager aka FDM, the best download manager!

Free Download Manager is a software program that allows you to download files more rapidly from the internet by connecting to multiple download servers or starting multiple connections to one server and it has a resume function in case you get disconnected from the internet or the server is too slow and drops the connection. FDM is a great program because it integrates very well in Firefox, it adds a menu that gives you the option to download the file with it or download multiple files from the website, for example there is a web page that has a lot of photos, you right click in this page an select to download all files with free download manager then you get a menu from FDM and you can manually select the files you want to download from that site or you select the extension of the files you want to download. Now FDM has improved and you can also download torrents and you can upload with it files to a file hosting server directly from it and it gives you an address so you can share the file with your friends.
