Does anyone here use anything besides Internet Explorer? I want something that is basically Internet Explorer except with tabbed browsing.

And while I'm talking about that how about something with tabbed messenging for MSN.

Anyone know some programs that can do this?

For a browser I'm trying out Mozilla Firebird. It's working good so far, maybe a little slower than IE though.

You can't uninstall IE , it's built into XP.

Firebird is the best browser out IMO. It has some rendering problems, but that's due to people not making their site multi-browser capable.

You can try MYIE2 which IMO is the best IE based browser.

I agree with Tet, MYIE2 is my favorite.

You have to configure Miranda quiet abit before it will start working the way you want it. I don't think there are any other MSN alternatives for Windows.

I couldn't get it to run in the first place in order to configure it, it just crashed before anything ran.

I doubt it, I don't think they would ever do anything right.

They were going to along time ago, people have already hacked the latest protocol so all the 3rd party messengers can still connect to msn

If they don't want 3rd party messengers using it then they should make theirs good.

IMO there is nothing wrong with the current iteration of MSN messenger.
