These people are very helpful. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/browser-for-vista#post-35495 Fri, 18 Jul 2008 01:49:16 +0000 ScottW 35495@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Yes, definitely stick with a well known browser. It's also important to download it from a trusted source. When you can, get it from the developer's website. For Firefox, go to <a href='http://www.mozilla.com/firefox'>http://www.mozilla.com/firefox</a> and for Opera go to <a href='http://www.opera.com'>http://www.opera.com</a></p> <p>When you say Avant messed up your system, I expect that you mean that the installation caused problems. For that problem, you can never really be safe from possible software conflicts or bad installs. To mitigate this issue, it would be best to use the most popular of browsers -- IE or FF. With tens of millions of people having installed the same browser, chances are higher that someone has already seen the issues you have and any conflicts have been resolved or documented. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/browser-for-vista#post-35488 Fri, 18 Jul 2008 00:04:41 +0000 Scott 35488@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>No popular browser should screw up your system. And any answer you may receive is subjective, so try them all and pick one or more you like.<br /> Avant, IE, Opera, Firefox, etc. are all 'safe', though some would argue to varying degrees. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/browser-for-vista#post-35487 Fri, 18 Jul 2008 00:02:17 +0000 jkubat 35487@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>hi all, was wondering what browser is safe to download?
