I'm running 2 accounts on one machine, and fire up allakhazam with internet explorer (ver 7) to look up something, and its ridiculously slow. It kept saying...connecting...connecting, i ended up dumping it with task manager, and by then it was "not responding".
I then did the same with firefox, and it was fine. I have a lot of stuff turned off in IE, any idea what is wrong?
I use to use just firefox, but then i heard firefox slowly causes a memory leak. ( but i dont know for sure if it does).

Not sure about your IE problem but I know I've used Firefox for a long time and have had no issues with memory leakage.
I'm with FFATMA. Firefox almost never gives me any kind of trouble. I can't think of any good reason to use IE, anymore, really. There may be some, but I sure can't think of any.
You may want to edit your title there, btw; it's confusing.

Oh god, IE7?!
IE7 has bigger holes in it's security than our border patrol! THAT is why you are having problems.
Firefox is life.
I used IE for years, but my father does driver design at Xerox and informed me VERY swiftly to jump ship just before IE7 hit. It digs into your registry like no other, and allows so many security leaks. It's like having an INTENTIONAL virus. His whole lab uses Firefox... and they are a Microsoft buddy. If that doesn't say something...
Best of luck with you!(and no, no mem leak. That's like WIN98 and IE issues)

I haven't closed Firefox in about a week, and I have a ton of tabs open and I haven't had any problems...
I haven't used IE for over 4 years. I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.
well, thats good enough for me. After a hacking 2 years ago, i swore off ie.
thanx
thanx
I'm using IE7 and IE8 beta. Works fine for me. Probably what is wrong is the "lot of stuff" you turned off in IE was stuff you aught not to turn off. That or your javascript installation is screwed up in IE.
The latest version of firefox has eliminated the memory leak you refer to.
