How to avoid problems when surfing?
Not all browsers are equal and thus each have their own unique issues.
Unfortunately myths are spread by politicians to show their own opinion in a
less than worthy position over reality. This leaves those who rely on truth for
best performance in some confusion. Please discard other opinions and rely on
your own council. This one action will save you many wasted hours.
The
latest versions of FF, IE, Chrome and Safari in their default settings all
handle surfing without difficulty. Opera's implementation of JavaScript means
that some screens may look odd but this does not impede surfing.
However
ALL browsers suffer through lack of memory. If your PC is overloaded with
software and drivers, is out of date, low on RAM then you will have problems and
some browsers will perform better than others. Experimentation will help you
find the solution for your environment.
All versions of Firefox use a lot
of memory, to some extent this is why it performs better than other browsers,
they load everything into memory so it's available when needed. However if you
have lots of programs (or browser tabs open) then your PC will not leave much
for additional requirements, such as the code used to block frame breakers. If
you have experienced 'locked' screens or frozen tabs this is most likely the
reason. In this situation it is better to surf with only one browser window open
and on a single tab.
Internet Explorer 8 is a godsend over it's
predecessor and it too can experience similar memory issues to Firefox (though
not as serious). However it provides better control over JavaScript with code in
the focus page having priority over that in the frame which means there is less
likely to be code interrupting the smooth running of the surfbar. Unfortunately
added flexibility means that some experienced webmasters knowing their site may
appear in TE's add code in the hope it does interrupt the process. You
are protected against this but it may fail if you have memory issues. The
solution is to surf with a single browser and tab open.
There are few
reports of issues with Safari and if it wasn't for it's occasional problematic
rendering it would probably be a reliable browser to surf with.
The same goes for Chrome, however it is without doubt the browser that uses
the least memory and is extremely efficient. It does have a rendering problem
sometimes but it is the most reliable surfbar at time of writing
Opera is
good, but it offers no advantages over the above at the moment. However Opera
has an uncanny way of "doing things better" than it's competitors and each
release is innovative so who knows, by the time you read this it maybe the one
to consider.
So in general...
If
you are a browser politician then stick with your choice, neither I nor your
spouse will change you. If you could care less then try other browsers, they all
have advantages.
To improve surfing limit the number of browser windows
and tabs to just one. Unload programs that are not required to increase the
memory and if you still experiencing issues reboot your PC. Investigate
any memory resident programs and services that you no longer need and remove any
no longer required. This will make a surprising improvement to the entire
performance of your PC and programs in general.
How can I contact you?
Our contact information can be found in the members are "support" link.
What kind of websites do you allow? (do you allow adult content?)
NO ADULT CONTENT. NO HATE, NO WAREZ, NOTHING ILLEGAL, NOTHING ILLICIT, NOTHING IMMORAL, NO BANNER FARMS, NO FRAME BUSTERS. It's common sense stuff really, but for the record we're here to promote legitimate websites only.
Typically our members promote online businesses, businesses tools and business events. As long as these meet with the above guidelines and don't offend anyone then that's fine by us.
Do you allow the use of languages other than English?
A page must not use less than 90% English otherwise it may be paused or removed from the system.
What are your terms and conditions?
Like most Traffic exchange programs we have strict rules to protect
our members from cheating. The program employs methods to detect
cheating and will suspend any accounts that fail to abide by our rules.
