Sorry to bug you FWS, but why does the "Quick Menu v" change to "Open Buddy List"?

And also, "Mark Forums Read" is near there too. o_O What's going on? vB's actually MAC friendly? :eek:

I have no idea what you just said...

What's "Quick Menu v" and what's it near? :confused2

It's called "Quick Links" and works fine in Safari, but NOT IE 5.2 for Macintosh. :S

For the record, nothing has ever worked properly in Mac IE.

Except for the dotted and dashed border elements. :p

Yup.

And it has been "unsupported" for at least 3 years now.

True also firefox does the same thing. Firefox also doesnt like the reply buttons etc. I think this forum needs to be upgraded. The newest version of vb is 3.5.4 and your got 3.5.1

You sure?
I'm using the latest Firefox, 1.5.0.2, and everything looks fine...

I use Safari and everything looks fine. You must be using an older mac? Otherwise, Apple stopped bundling IE with Macs years ago (and MS stopped developing it) and replaced it with Safar.

But, if it's an older Mac, Safari is probably very slow on it.

I already had Safari on that machine (10.x Macintosh) so I didn't really need FF. Safari worked fine.

Also, Safari doesn't come by default with 9.x, but I think you can still download it. :p Has anyone also tried going to the microsoft website via a macintosh? No matter WHICH version of MAC you have, it always redirects to Mactopia instead. (Unless you give an EXACT URL via microsoft.com, then it'll work.)

I'm sorry, but it's bugging me. It's Mac, not MAC.

And yes, it will direct you to http://microsoft.com/mac

I capitalize my MACs...

vB's actually MAC friendly?

For some reason, I don't know... maybe because the original MAC :p logo has the face and capital M A C at the bottom.

You can get Safari for OS 9? I thought is was for OS X only?

Safari is Mac OS X only.

That's what I thought. So, Firefox (if it's available for OS 9) would probably be the best alternative to IE on OS9.

Nah, I'd go with Netscape for a MAC anyday. -_-'

No firefox is not avaliable on os 9 but Moziila suite is. Netscape is horrible when i had os 9 a while back ie was pretty good but i had no computer knowledge compared to i do toady!

A MAC is a code your broadband provider gives you to migrate. A Mac is short for Macintosh. Get it right :p

Nah, I'm sticking with MAC for MACs. :p
