One quick question
Why do you use IE at all ??? Its the worst browser. Use Opera.

Vyom · 27-07-2011, 10:53 PM

And if you love IE so much.. install IE 10.

Hi Avchandana!

This link has a discussion of how to solve your missing progress bar:

Internet Explorer 9 Progress Bar missing - Technology & Internet

If you are experiencing other random system issues often you may also take a look at acquiring and installing a good 3rd party defrag

I've noticed that i tend to get way more OS problems when I neglect regularly defragmenting the drive. Also as the drive gets fuller the fragmentation seems to accelerate. My solution has been to run a good 3rd party defrag to make sure this whole aspect of normal maintenance actually gets done and it's noticeably decreased the number of issues I get. So I pass this along for what it's worth.

The concept of good and bad is a very relative one you know. So pls do not impose any decision to anybody. I have been using IE from the period of win 95. I have also used netscape navigator, pearl, opera, firefox. All of them are good. But i love IE. and this is completetly my likings.

Please don't get me wrong but IE is far behind other browsers in every aspect. Its another thing that you use it because you find it comfortable. But it has least features and that too bloated as compared to good browsers like Opera at best. I am not imposing any decision at you I am just giving you a decent advice. take it or don't its your call.

Anyways here is link for IE10 download

sukesh1090 · 28-07-2011, 05:38 PM

its ok guys.i think IE 9 is very good its image clarity and all are very good when compared to chrome and its smooth scrolling is awesome.

Zangetsu · 28-07-2011, 05:55 PM

@avichandana20000: the progress bar is always there in IE9 @ bottom right of status bar.

pls do not mind if i am harsh on you. can you just provide a link where all the browsers are compared with features in a tabular format.

Also want to know

In IE when i open a site & i just click in favourites menu and then ADD to favourites....its done.

But this i find very difficult in other browsers i.e. adding a site to favourite menu is a pain in a$$ for me .

Neuron · 29-07-2011, 08:23 PM

You can right click the page and click 'add to bookmarks' in other browsers.Go here for a performance comparison.

Neuron · 29-07-2011, 09:06 PM

I use Opera and making bookmarks is just one click away. Right click on blank area and select Bookmark page. I guess this is simple enough.

To access them click on that Red icon(Mine is white though as I use Latest release) and then bookmarks and there you go. You can also enable Bookmarks bar for bookmarks on top or Bookmarks on sidebar for bookmarks on left side.

I did provided you links for IE download and review in my previous post. You should have seen that.

Bookmarking in all browsers is 1 right-click away

avichandana20000 · 30-07-2011, 09:30 PM

Thanks to all.

Now tell me there is a software called FREECORDER for recording streaming audio and video. This remains as a bar in IE. can i attach it to OPERA?

gameranand · 30-07-2011, 09:49 PM

What do you usually stream ???
If youtube and other sites then there are a lot of Opera extensions for that. You need not to worry about that. You'll get the extension for your purpose in Opera.

Are we having a browser WAR here ?

Even I like to use IE.

I have used browser from the very first one "Netcape Navigator" (now known as Mozilla Firefox) and have seen all the browsers grow to what it is today.

And after all this years, I have fallen back to IE ........

Besides, IE10 is in PREVIEW stage and recommending to download it is not good.

gameranand · 30-07-2011, 09:54 PM

I just saw the siftware and its for youtube downloading and audio streaming right. You definitely don't need to worry you'll find extensions easily. One is Fastest Youtube downloader..

One-Click Bookmarking

Manage your bookmarks a lot or a little. One click on the star icon at the end of the location bar bookmarks a site. Two clicks and you can choose where to save it and whether to tag it.
