Does Doodles Kisses Slow Your Internet to a Crawl?

[Adina P]

If Doodle Kisses makes your internet browsing SLOOOWWW...then you might want to consider what internet browser you're using.

When browsing the internet, do you use Internet Explorer 6 (IE6) or Firefox? (Ignore this question if you use Chrome or Safari).

If you are using IE6 I encourage you to upgrade to version 7 or switch to Firefox entirely. IE6 is 8 years old, and not actually safe security wise, leaving you open to phishing and malware attacks. It also can make your Doodle Kisses browsing experience slower than it should be.

You can get the new version of IE by clicking here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=9AE91EBE-3385-447C-8A30-081805B2F90B&displaylang=en
Click here instead for version 7

Or you can download Firefox (free) here -- Firefox is my preference and my recommendation, but it's not the only option.

I use MSN explorer, latest version.

I'm a big fan of firefox myself... can't stand Internet Explorer

Adina, thank you for introducing me to Firefox. Since making the switch from EI, I have not had one freeze-up here or on other sites. Also, Firefox is faster. Again, my thanks.

[Adina P]

You're very welcome! It was one thing I took for granted since I had been using it for years...forgot others didn't know about it!

I have been using Firefox for several years and telling everyone I know to switch. Great features!

I have mozilla firefox, but where is the spell check?

[ClarkP]

Spell check is built right into Firefox. Try it. Spell something wrong... it will put a red line under that word and if you right click on the underlined misspelled word, will give you options for the correct word/spelling. Kewl, eh?! (I did that just so I could see the red line under "kewl"!)

One note... it doesn't correct the spelling on web pages or once you have submitted a post. It just does it in text input boxes. Only places where you can type on the web. Like in this reply box.

I suppose I could keep IE6 along with IE7 and/or Firefox (tried FF several months ago & liked it). Our Multiple Listing Service (at least in San Diego County) will not work with IE7--yet, or with Firefox. Reports are that they're working on it but not yet.
