go through the process of downloading IE 7 RC1 you will notice images from firefox browser.

Now really why are you going to give your compitition free advertisement like that or any at all.

Especially when they got the better browser? hmmm...

lol, thats sad....

even the tec's at Microsoft think that Firefox is better than IE (the windows default browser), why not do somthing to make FireFox the main windows browser? meaning have windows XP from here on out have Firefox instead of IE.... that could bring firefox some money, and would piss a friend of mine off really badly biggrin.gif it's bad enough i am thinking about trying to cinvince the super attendant of our district to have all of the schools browsers changed to Firefox instead of IE.... i jsut need to type up the pro's and con's but i dont know if i ever will... lmao

silly microsoft

Compared with Mozilla Firefox, micrsoft's IE 7 looks really bad and lousy. And with firefox 2 coming out, microsoft is going to have no chance whatsoever. Let's hope that their Windows Vista would be up to scratch.

Maybe they want the common typical user who doesn't know anything but Internet Explorer to think that it looks like Firefox. It might be some weird form of advertising for newbs that don't know the difference. Firefox is way better than IE.

even opera owns ie... well i dont think that ie is that bad of a web broswer, its just that its the most abused of the lot. it takes crap from the majority of spyware and viruses as its very maintream. if firefox became the new ie, i'd say ththat it will suffer the same abuse from hackers and other idiots wanting to mess around. its a matter of impact i guess, ie is just abusable so it takes it all.

It is much more likely that ie is more (most?) vulnerable to running malicious code. This argument that ____ from Microsoft is vulnerable because it is dominant, and _____ from _____ is not bothered by nasty code because it isn't really doesn't wash. Most of the time, software that is secure is not vulnerable becuase it is secure, well written, etc. Look at the recent series of adds from Macintosh. They are not claiming to be secure through being unknown, they are secure because they are secure.

it's becuase you are trying to acess that page with firefox, so they are trying to show you in your way.

i am using firefox and i get those images, and when i tried the page with internet explorer, they have different images.
