mac friendly browser
safari keeps kicking me out of fantasy football, google maps, etc
mozilla firefox has been recommended...my mac is version 10.3.9 but firefox 3 is for 10.4 and above...
ok, so do i search for firefox 2 or do i upgrade my mac and how would one do that?
yours sincerely,
jonny the computer illiterate

Re: mac friendly browser
i've got safari and firefox but usually don't bother with firefox
have you done a google on the safari glitch?
if you wanted to upgrade you'd have to buy a copy of tiger-10.4 or leopard-10.5 .......dunno how much they'd be in england though...

Re: mac friendly browser
As naboo mentioned, try Opera. It's a very good browser.
Camino is another, though I've never used it.

Re: mac friendly browser
I used to browse with Valvoline, but these days I find it a tad buggy. My current browser is Mongo, which is slick and enticing.
