|
|
We recently hooked up a new computer and for some reason, we have much better speed getting on-line with Firefox than with Explorer. However, my wife can't seem to upload pics on Cyworld whe using the Firefox browser. Does anyone know anything about this that could be useful?
Thanks |

The Cyworld website simply mightn't work with Firefox.
I've had similar problems using Firefox on Korean sites, particularly with images functioning as buttons.
There may be ways around it, but a simple answer would be to use Firefox for casual surfing and IE for Korean sites involving interaction.
You could also experiment with different browsers, such as Opera, Google Chrome etc. but more than likely Korean websites will give errors at some point. |

do you know what addon?
I was under the impression that, because of the excessive use of Active X, only IE could run many Korean websites. |

It's called IE View, but all it does is open the current page with IE. Useful, but not a miracle cure. |

| Korean sites are all designed for IE. It's pretty much a requirement to use most sites. |
