Converted

not too big to admit it.

from WinCustomize Forums

Well, as some of you I'm sure will know I've stuck with IE6 for quite some time on XP... Mainly because I know quite a few folks globally still use it and therefore I have felt compelled to keep skinning it, toolbar Icons mostly..

Anyway, with WC acting like a crazed maniac on IE6 and now the guic (WC template) site with no IE6 support at all I finally got fed up and downloaded Firefox3.

I'd had some bad experiences with it in earlier versions and had a definate bias. However, I started using it about 2 weeks ago and I am happy to admit that perhaps I should have switched a little earlier, so far it's been a better browser, nicely customizable and pretty fast using the latest release.

So yeah, there ya go, I finally caved and would now happily recommend it to anyone getting a bit sick of IE6 antics. For those final IE6 diehards, don't worry, I'll keep skinning it till it dies.

Still have an issue copy and pasting in a forum reply on WC though.. perhaps someone knows a fix for that?

k, back to work.

Menu paste & copy doesn't work in FF3, you have to use ctrl+c and ctrl+v.

I can right click copy, but not right click paste - in Firefox -keep getting a message that copy/cut/paste not available in Mozilla and firefox, would you like more information on this?

 

eh

 

ctrl+v works

There is a fix which you can navigate to when the small "FF3 has no cot and paste" screen opens===> learn more brings you to the website (mozilla) with the fix, step by step.

I dunno what you guys did, but I just copied and paste'd. No issues. Of course, I tried that a few hours ago, and it wouldn't go. that is just weird.
