Sorry ham.. But I hated Tabbed browsing..

I think I have figured it out anywhoo!

My DVD drive was running in PIO on DMA..

For some reason this slowed down the browsing speeds and so on..

Still fiddling!

These people speak the truth. Listen to the wise ones, download Firefox.

Wait, how can you not like tabbed browsing? It's like 10 times as convenient to just switch tabs than it is to switch windows and have new ones pop up and such. I just don't even understand the argument.

Meh, to everyone their own.
