I am still running Windows 2000 Pro (Service Pack 4). And honestly, I'm loving it. It is VERY stable on my system (not the GREATEST; but runs like a NEW WindowsXP machine =P):\n\n--HARDWARE/OS--\nWindows 2000 Pro SP4\nPentium III 733MHz\n60GB HD\nCD-ROM and CD-R/RW\n256MB RAM\nGeForce FX 5200 128MB PCI Graphics Card\n\n--SOFTWARE--\nMS Visual Studio 2005 Professional + MSDN Library\n    == VS 2005 is a COMPLETE INSTALL\nMS SQL Server 2005 Pro == COMPLETE INSTALL\nMS SQL Server Management Studio (2005)\nAdobe Photoshop CS2\n3D Studio Max 6\nMaya Unlimited 6\nAVG Anti-Virus\nAd-Aware 6 Pro\n.NET Framework 2.0\nAvant Browser (Web Browser)\nInternet Explorer 6.0 SP1 (required for Visual Studio 2005)\nQuake III: Arena + Team Arena\nNeverwinter Nights\nKingpin: Life Of Crime\nNHL 2004\nWinamp 5.1\nFL Studio 6.0 Producer-XXL Edition (music composition)\n\nAnd there is TONS more software. Just can't think of anymore.\n\nEACH of those applications runs smoothly, and I can run Visual Studio 2005, Photoshop, Winamp, Internet Explorer, and SQL Server Management Studio TOGETHER with no problem.\n\nIt all depends on how you maintain your PC.\n\nI love the security features in Windows 2000. And Windows XP is a MAJOR resource hog. Win2000 runs like a dream for me. It runs so smooth, it's almost like I'm running a P4 2.4GHz or something of that nature. And only on a 60GB HD.\n\nWin2000 is still a great OS. I don't care what anyone says/thinks. And I do like XP, but I can get all the same features for a LOT less CPU usage. If I used XP, it'd have to be Professional edition, because it offers A LOT more security than Home. And it also offers MS IIS HTTP Server, and Home does not. But Windows 2000 does, too.\n\nI'll use Windows 2000 as long as I can. I'll upgrade if I ever feel like I absolutely need to. All of my development tools, like Visual Studio, SQL Server, SQL Server Mgmt. Studio, Photoshop, 3DS Max, Maya, etc., are still supported by Windows 2000. So as long as I upgrade development tools, and they support Win2000, I am not going to upgrade to a later version of Windows.\n\nThat's what I think about Windows 2000. It's a great OS. And it doesn't take near as much resources/CPU usage as XP. And it runs all of my applications. So I love it, and will for quite a while.\n\nLike I said, it's all about how you maintain your PC. I keep mine cleaned up constantly. Removing ANY unnecessary programs/files/temp. files from my computer. If I ever need a file for temporary usage, I place it directly on the desktop, no matter the size, so I can easily delete it later on when I'm finished with it. =)

firefox.  it has many good plug ins and warns  you about risky sites which to my understanding internet explorer does not.  it also loads pages faster.  it is clean and efficient.  \n\nyes i do use my computer a lot and mozilla is awsome.

Go to oldversion you can get any of the older html browsers there to suite your needs. Sometimes Newer isn't Better.

I personally think Windows 2000 is the best for a computer at Work. Especially if you have a lot of users who share the network.\n\nFor home and personal use, I prefer Windows XP Pro because it has a nice user friendly and familiar interface and the security is always improving.

Switch to Firefox! It's much better and safer than IE.

You need Windows 2000 or XP

Firefox is fast and tops. However some pages may not render ideally under FF. In these cases you will have to use Internet  Explorer at times. The IE plugin for FF is a bit buggy as well.. can't have everything in this world!\n\nHowever when Vista comes out next year, IE7 will take my cake as the best browser, the betas look great.

Well, I'd consider having Firefox to be a good thing. It's a far superior browser to IE. As far as cleaning crap off the pc, I'm not really sure what you mean but here are some ideas. If you are referring to the web browser, from the Tools menu choose Options. Then click the Privacy button and you will be presented with tabs for History, Cache, and Cookies, all of which can be cleared from this window.\n\nIf it's your computer in general you want to clean up, definitely defrag for starters. Defrag by clicking Start -> Run... and typing "defrag" in the field. You need to have 15 percent of your hard drive free for defrag to work. To clean up your hard drive, go to Start -> Settings -> Control Panels -> Add/Remove programs. Go down the list and find programs that take up a lot of space that you never use. Assuming you have XP, it provides the date the program was last used, which is helpful. Finally you should consider using some anti-spyware software if you don't already. I use AdAware and Spybot, both of which are free programs. \n\nGood luck! If my answer was helpful, please remember to consider selecting it as the best one in 24 hours. :-)

I can't beleive your still using IE. Firefox is much better and faster. got to mozilla.com it is a free browser and with the "fasterfox" extention you will be surprised at the speed. (firefox does read html slightly differntly so on a small percentage of websites, the page is displayed slightly differently)

Firefox!!!! or maybe Safari, although it's pretty much the same minus a few features. Do not use IE, it sucks balls. \nFirefox has tabbed browsing, and a customisable search bar at the top, which are probably it's best 2 features. There are also 1000's of skins available so you can make the browser look the way you want- make it look like safari if you prefer.

Opera and Netscape also can do the simultaneously loading. Speed is much faster than IE\n\nd10v01b

There are at least three browsers that are better:\nFirefox, Opera and Mozilla.\n   The main reason being that they are all much safer to surf with than I E or I E based browsers such as DeepNet Explorer or Avant.\n   Also Firefox and especially Opera are faster and come with an integrated rss/xml-feeds reader.\n   Another thing is that there are hundreds of useful and excellent plugins for Firefox.\n   Moreover Mozilla, Opera and Firefox let you see the webpages as they should be seen. I E is hopeless in that regard.\n   I would say: try it and see for yourself. You'll drop I E...

I would say Firefox, since it looks just like Explorer but with some extra features like "Tabbed Browsing" (which makes it alot quicker when switching back and forth between websites)  and it seems to prevent alot of spyware from getting in my computer.  Netscape is supposedly good too, but I never liked the feel of it.

Well, I used almost all browsers out there for Windows OS, Symbian OS, and Windows Mobile 5.0 (PDA)...\nOpera by far is the most satisfactory browser out there; tabbed browsing; extremely fast; very very user friendly; and lastly easy to customize. Firefox is a good choice, and it's getting more popular everyday. But I still find Opera (which is free on www.opera.com) more useful.\nBTW, for cellphone mobile brower, any java-enabled phone can run Opera-Mini, which is hell of a browser, Netfront is the second choice for SymbianOS phones.

why bother with netscape? firefox rox! \nit has tabbed browsing, multiple search engines (as oposed to only google you can get a dictionary, a theasarus, and so much more!), can tell you the weather even and it runs smoothly. it won't completley replace ie unless you get ietab, because it doesn't have ActiveX support. so in sum...\nfirefox+ietab is good because you can totally customize it!
