newsgroup reader/ changing browsers
Hi all,
OK, this is on topic only because we're all reading this group on computers, so I have a computer question. My ISP changed to Giganews, making access to Usenet difficult. Therefore I'm taking this opportunity to research changing from Outlook Express to some other news reader. I'm also taking this opportunity to finally stop using Internet Explorer as a browser. Something I intended to do 4-5 yrs ago, heh. I'm considering Mozilla/Firefox and Agent. (Unless Mozilla has its own newsreader... hadn't thought of that) Any input as to ease of use or frequency of attacks by popups/worms/viruses etc with these alternate programs? Like would they be more/less open to attack? I find I have gotten stuck in my ways and only understand programs of the 1995-1998 vintage, so I'm anticipating a steep learning curve, as well as frustration and hair pulling when I make this switch. Its hell getting old. K Barrett |
