I'm about to dump Firefox, because I can't google in English. The thing doesn't let me choose the language, and I'm tired of getting useless Brazilian links. Yes, I know about the settings, I already deleted the google.pt cookie, but it's no use. I don't know, nor care, whose fault it is (Google's, firefox's or mine, for not having telepathic gifts), I just won't let anyone choose for me.
Have you tried the "Google in English" link at the bottom of the page? I just tried it and it returned in English at the same session after closing the page. As firefox mantains your session, I believe its a solution. I have no brazilian links when I search for English words (at least not at the top of the list).
So, the point is: what browser now? Firefox is the one more often mentioned in this list. How about Konqueror or Opera? The latter is hardly ever mentioned. Is there some special reason for this? For example, is it activelly maintained? Is it missing some particular feature? It looks nice enough, but is there some catch? And Konqueror? I already use KDE, so that's not an issue.
I use firefox all the time, but Konqueror is fine, so is Opera, never benchmarked any of those neither tried different pages, but I like Opera because I used to run it on Windows few years ago. -- Daniel da Veiga Computer Operator - RS - Brazil -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GCM/IT/P/O d-? s:- a?
