I did it

After 17 years of using Internet Explorer, I am moving to Chrome. I found an extension that gets rid of the hideous underlined links, I've moved and arranged my complex array of favorites, and bumped the Chrome icon to the primer spot on my Quick Launch.

Can't wait for you to try Firefox in 2029.

I thought the Navigator is the first choice for Subsim...

Resurrection !


Well, been having a lot of trouble with Chrome the last 3 months, slow, not loading pages, stuck... I tried a few remedies like flushing DNS, reinstalling and updating, checking for malware... no luck.



Switched to Firefox. Sigh, have to go through the getting used to slight formatting differences in the browser optics but at least it works.

Good grief man why are you using slash and burn tactics, when Firefox starts to run slow are you going to change browser again?, it won't be long before you've run out of browsers and what then? you should have tried Chromes cleanup tool and if that didn't work then you can dump the bloody browser.

You just guilted me from burning Chrome at the stake.


Wait, why would I want to download a Chrome cleanup tool from some random website, shouldn't it come from Google?
