    Default FV running slow for you?

    I am such a I have always used IE as my browser BUT I do have Firefox as a back up and to view some things that other sites have required.

    If the village site is running slow for you like it has been for me lately, download the Mozilla Firefox browser! http://www.the-mozilla.com/

    Holy smokes, my pages are loading so fast now I can't believe it. Firefox is now my default browser and IE can be my backup!

    I love Firefox. I find it's much faster too.

    I went into Foxfire but have no idea what to check and uncheck as far as what I want on my computer. I am a real dunce when it comes to the computer and downloads. Any help here would be appreciated.

    Slow for me. Yes. I don't know about foxfire, I used it before and it seemed like when sites were slow, they just were.

    Barbara,

    You can download version 3.0 sneak peak here.
    (It is even faster than 2.0)
    http://download.mozilla.org/?product...win&lang=en-US

    Give it a try. If you do not like it, just uninstall it.
