    On browsers........
    « on: June 09, 2013, 03:07:42 PM »
    Have been reading this forum on browsers, & I'm looking for a different one also. I use Hotmail to connect with family/friends, but don't like it. I'm tired of I.E.
    I have windows 7, use dial-up.
    Is any particular browser especially good for use with dial-up, since it is slower than high speed ?
    I'd like to get my pc as speedy as I can get it with dialup. What can help here ? I know I can delete programs I don't need, but when I look at these programs, I don't always understand what the terms mean, so how do I know which to delete ?

    I would take a look at Opera - it has a neat feature called Opera Turbo which can compress web pages, this should speed up your browsing especially on a slower connection.

    I'd also check with your provider and see if DSL is available...a decent jump in speed for not that much extra.
