I was reading up on Tor there and it recommended firefox.

Thought i'd give it a go since i've not used it for years.

Won't login to CS, brilliant program.

I've been looking through the add ons.

Nothing has tempted me away yet.

Only thing that's tempted me from IE is mouse gestures in opera.

I've never had a problem logging into CS with Firefox...

There's not many add-ons I use, but I swear by the Gmail notifier and the English spell checker.

In fact, I've got a fresh install of Firefox on my other box and I just tried logging in... Absolutely fine.

Used it for years and years and never had any problems.

You were probably doing it wrong John, n00b.

IE is notorious for being a pain in the arse to make websites compliant for, so normally its that browser that has the display problems.

FF ftw.

If you couldn't sign in then you were being an uber noob.

Everything looks better in FF and loads quicker. Fact.

I installed firefox, came to CS, put in the correct login details, it showed a blank page then went back to being logged out.

How would you have done that differently?

I don't know how they look better in firefox, who designs pages for firefox, it's not even that much more standards compliant than IE, I've yet to see this speed thing either.

I've been using Chrome, Firefox and IE the past couple of months. IE (the actual version 8 not the beta) is still the best. Chrome was removing some options from pull down menus on websites I use and FF had formatting issues on a site I moderate on.

I find IE is slower to load things.

Never been able to sort out the problems I had with google chrome on my laptop at home. It works fine on my work PC though.

after the update to version 3 i couldn't log into an integra forum using it. you'd fill in the details and password, click log in and you'd get a fresh log in screen and nothing else. apparently other users are having the same problem

on 2 seperate machines btw

Check the address bar.

If you're on http://corsasport.co.uk/ and click the login button at the top right, it might be logging you in to http://www.corsasport.co.uk/ and then redirect you back to http://corsasport.co.uk/ which will still show you as logged out.

Best thing to do is make sure you're on http://www.corsasport.co.uk/ and check your bookmarks etc. That way it'll always work.

I installed it, still have it installed actually as I was playing about with Tor, it didn't work when I first installed it, wtf has that got to do with me (if it was correct, but isn't) only liking micrsoft?
