Why will a web sites proudly offer a browser for download that "WORKS FOR XP" and then give or sell you something that absolutely will not, can not, work on an XP system? I might check these out again later but they are way on the back burner as far as I'm concerned.
That sort of puts any trial on hold as far as I'm concerned. What I downloaded was identified as Not a legitimate 32bit file. It might have been great except for my dabbling. I think it needs to be on the Possibly A Keeper list. Of course the browser didn't work properly after I was done with it. I was overcome and eventually totally out of my league. Everything you can imagine can be tweaked in that settings area. K-Meleon is like falling into the Way Back Pit. I will determine all that little stuff that makes browsing a pleasure or a pain. I will determine when or if it will update. One of my first tasks after installation of a new browser is to get into it's Settings or Options. It has reached the level of tried it got rid of it and will not be looking back. It won't load a page completely or it will eventually just blink out and require re-opening. Also I find that in a short time Opera starts to hiccup and stagger. It's like driving into a new town and seeing streets and buildings just like the streets and buildings you have seen someplace before. Also I find Opera reminds me of the dark days of IE and Windows 95. If you require the security blanket of system and security updates you may as well look some place else. Opera is no longer being supported by its developers. I have tried it several times and each time I reach the same condition and conclusion. This one is apparently the go to browser whenever a user starts to get scary about the evils out there in Cyberlund.
It has a simple and clean lay out, almost Spartan, and of all those I have tried so far it is on my keepers list. In my quest to extend the joys of an XP computer I have tried out many of the above and if it will help I will offer my impressions of the ones I use, try to use, tried to use and stepped away from.Īs a couple of posters have noted, It works! I find it to be pretty fast and seems to be missing the conflicts that make several of the other recommendations start-stop-chatter-& fail.
