What's the best browser to use when playing online? I prefer Firefox to Safari but still have some probs occasionally with both. When I do run into a hiccup the casinos tell me to clear all the cookies - seems to work (don't know why), but it is a pain in the butt to have to do especially in the middle of a roll. Any ideas? Is Explorer any better?

I use Firefox, and I always have. I don't seem to have issues very often. Slot O Cash was having issues, but it was with their tournaments, nothing to do with my computer. Signing me out in the middle of FREE SPINS. Yikes! Sad

My web browser is Google Chrome.... no problem so far as long as my user account control setting is on medium restriction. When I play the tourney for 45 minutes, it does disconnect due to inactivity..? I think that's a casino issue. Wink

+1 on Google Chrome. I have found it runs everything I throw at it, better than Safari (my second choice) or Internet Explorer (the worst).

i think it's google chrome too, you can lower the restriction level and you can run almost everything lol i don't even consider internet explorer as alternative Smile

I'm afraid I'd disagree with your opinion about Chrome- it's being crushed each and very time I open more than 5 tabs ... Firefox for me, please.

Windows 7, Google Chrome and 8 gigabytes work for me. Here's the latest news about Chrome 17:
