I made this reply to a post in TOOL TALK by jeffcat and thought that if some of you guys don't look on that board that you might like to see this info........ I have used both IE and Firefox browsers since '99. I use Firefox 99% of the time as it is faster and much more secure than IE. There is a test you can go to to see how fast your internet service is. I compare IE and Firefox at least once a week, and Firefox is consistently 100 - 200 k faster download speed than IE. You can go to the link below and check your internet speed out for your self and then compare both browsers if you want. You guys with dial up might not want to monkey with it as it takes time to download the image. But, Firefox might be able to speed up things for users with dial-up. First when you get into the site, click on INTERNET SPEED TEST then on the left side click on SHUTTLE+TEXT then on the right side click on NIBBLE INFO SYSTEMS then click on RUN TEST at the bottom then just wait, a page will open with your results with a graph and will have your results highlighted with something like THIS IS YOUR THROUGHPUT or something like that. If you are interested in Firfox just do a search for Firefox 2.0, and the best part is that Firefox is free as is IE.

A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
