				I use  IE  on two different computers  and I have  Firefox on both also
 
I like the looks of  IE better --- thats me    
 
 
 
but the past few days  ---  SBW has been sloooooooooooow 
 
during the day on both browsers    
 
 
I do not know if the problem is with my ISP (high speed cable) or with SBW |

				| downloaded Firefox, amazed at the difference.  Hacienda on IE is painfully slow, takes 30 secs to load a page in sometimes.  On Firefox, it plays as quickly at Amun Re.  Thanks. |

				| I used IE when I started and played fairly well, then when I installed Firefox I started losing more often, so I went back to IE and have played better since, so I would have to say IE is better for Hacienda |

Keep using Firefox. In time, you might turn back...    |

				much better today  ---
 
page loading is ok 
 
the thing that was very slow was --- completeing an action
 
i.e.  -- Hacienda  --- click on a card and wait..........
 
place the card and wait.............
 
end your turn and wait....................
 
 
same with Amun-Re |

				It works great for me on IE7. At the most it may take 3-5 seconds to load. But most of the time it loads in a sec or two.
 
 
...just my 2 pennies. |

				IE7 fixes the problems IE6 had with PNG transparency, so it will load about the same as Firefox. Firefox tends to have a slightly faster rendering engine, but IE7 is pretty darn close at this point. IE6 is archaic. _________________ ---------------

IE6 is still the standard for many enterprise environments.  IE5.5 is archaic, IE6 isn't quite there yet.  Some of us don't have a choice about what to use at work. |
