Firefox Knows Their Browser Doesn’t Work

7th Dec 2006Technology

This is a family-oriented site, so I’ll keep this clean and avoid the verb that rhymes with duck and describes what a vacuum cleaner does; but when a browser is written, and a new feature is added so that when the browser crashes, it can restore your session from the crash point, doesn’t that mean they know it’s going to crash?

I’m venting, because I’ve crashed twice in the past 20 minutes. And all I’m doing is trying to checkout from an online store. I don’t blame the merchant – I blame Firefox.

    At least it is ready, it beats when IE just dies. Or worse, when it does that sort of lingering movie style death where it freezes a bit, then comes back a second, then freezes completely for a while making you look at the information you input and are trying in vain to memorize (usually happened to me while writing an email through web mail), before closing. The final insult is when it asks if you want to report the error.

    I’ve been reporting my Firefox errors – I doubt it does any good. MSFT tells me there’s a Firefox upgrade, but Firefox can’t find one. I should’ve stayed with FF 1.5.
