I was wondering, what web browser do you all use? I use a combination of Opera, IE, and FireFox. I just downloaded Opera, and so far, I have been quite satisfied with it. I prefer this over FF. I can download things, and not have to save them somewhere. But, IE does have better tab options.

I like IE but I like FF for playing VMK full screen. Maybe I could play VMK full screen in IE but I don't know how. And I like VMK Pal most of the time but if I only have one account on like to play fireworks or jungle cruise or playing pirates for fun with friends then I like it full screen in FF. But when I play pirates just to get keys then I play 2 accounts at the same time against ai ships and I use VMK Pal for that.

I only use IE6. Didn't like IE7 at all, so deleted it.

Off Topic: To get full screen in IE, press F11. Press it again to get the smaller screen.

Why not use VMKPal for the full screen thing?

Because VMKPal won't go to the screen resolution for the full screen thing. When I play VMK full screen it's totally full screen with now broswer adress bar and no icons at the bottom of the screen or anything. It fills up the whole screen and it's way bigger than playing it regular. It's like playing roller coaster tycoon or something like that where it really is - full screen - and not just like VMKPal full screen where it has a big border but the size of the game playing area stills the same size.

PayPal? And, uh, I never did realize that FF would stretch the game. Then I bet it doesn't look as good as it does smaller.

I haven't ever tried FF to play VMK. Always just used VMKPal.

I have Safari and I'm completely satisfied. I don't see the point in having more than one browser, if you already have a good one x.x

I definetley prefer IE. It's very easy to use and is compatiable with many programs on the computer.

Firefox. I haven't had to use IE for many months. If I ever have to view a page in IE, I just use the IE tab add-on to open the page with IE's engine, but inside Firefox. Firefox is a lightweight, fully customizable browser. Starting Firefox takes about five seconds after rebooting, and IE can take up to thirty.

I've tried Opera on my Wii, but I have yet to try it on my computer. I also need to try Avant and Safari for Windows.

IE7 has too many bugs and I only use it when I HAVE to.
I use FireFox and used to use Avant a long time ago.

Ok, here's how to do it with FireFox...

First open the control panel and then open the - display - icon. On the - settings - tab change the screen resolution to 800x600 and then click - apply - and then - ok - after it changes. Then open a FireFox and put in this adress to get to the VMK log in screen: http://vmk.disney.go.com/vmk/en_US/index?name=LoginPage&bhcp=1

Then click the - view - tab at the top of the window and uncheck all the toolbar checks. Then click F11 and the window will fill up your whole screen. Enter your vmk log in and password and your VMK will fill your whole screen :)

And I think if you have a different size screen then maybe you you have to use a differnet resolution but just keep trying lower and lower resolution until it takes up your whole screen when you hit the F11 key.

Good luck. :)

PC:
-IE for some VMK and websites that need IE to be viewed, but it always crashes!
-Firefox for some VMK and majority of web browsing
-Opera for some web browsing and I use Opera Mobile for browsing the web on my phone.

Mac:
-Safari for the times I try to run VMK in Mac and anytime websites need to run under Rosetta.
-Firefox for all my web browsing.
