def. 100%

It's fast, safe and you can have multiple tabs (click ctrl and t) ...

I recently got it and it is rubbish. Everytime i close it i have to re-login to RHP and everytime i navigate away from my games it resets the settings so it stops displaying only games on my move. Unless there is some kind of patch out there, rubbish.

Try this,
Click on; tools/options/privacy/expand the cookies section/check the box for allow sites to set cookies/and in the keep cookies drop-down menu set it to until they expire
Then see if RHP remembers you wthout having to re-login.

No, that's not it.

Its to do with old IE cookies still in use. Once he deletes the IE cookies and the files from the cache, then it'll be fine.

He already has cookies enabled in Firefox cos if he didn't, he wouldn't be able to log in at all.

Alright, I've made the switch and I am currently on this site using Firefox. I see no problems thus far, and the 'tab' option is quite convenient.

The tab function is great. If you're on a dialup connection you can come on to RHP, open up a dozen games, disconnect and make your moves in your own good time. It's great for browsing Web sites, too.

Hey what gives! I finally downloaded firefox (My brothers been at me for ages!) and now it says something or other about not being able to connect? Is there more to it?
Edit:
Connecion was refused while attempting something or other

Your firewall? 🙄

Allow Firefox through. And while you're at it, block IE.

You need to set Firefox to allow "cookies" from the site. That is, if you trust the site.

I haven't touched it for a year. I feel dirty just thinking about it.

Following my advice to ditch IE, my nephew tried Opera. He fell in love with it.

...have you tried the others listed, non mozilla ones? Any
experience with those?

These and more. I use Netscape mostly (v 7.2). I find it offers the best balance between site accessibility, security and features.

But I don't like the latest release. So I'm not sure where I'll go from here.

If he's not using IE, the cookies from when he was will have no effect on firefox, they have to be re-done, same for any browser, they dont get transferred nor do they cause any conflict. I know this for a fact from what I experienced when I swapped over.

No, all my cookies, settings, etc. were transferred over to Firefox from IE when I made the switch.
