Quoting: Anonymous Coward 54168564 If Firefox works, why not just use Firefox? IE is utter crap. I use a variety of browsers (but not IE) and I have no problems with GLP. I don't use IE, except to verify how fucked up it is. A fellow GFLP'er asked me about it not working for them, so I tried it. Doesn't work for me, either.

I know there will come a day when I will have to give up my IE, but I'm going to hang on to it for as long as I can. I just recently had to give up my win7 and I still haven't recovered. I don't like change unless it's for the better. Each click feeds a shelter animal [link to theanimalrescuesite.greatergood.com (secure)] |

Is this a GLP issue or my IE issue? Calling for geektard help, please... :bf67: People were complaining GLP is unusable on most mobile platforms.
