I am a FireFox Lover and I hate IE

... just today I put Firefox banners on this page so as to educate those of you who are still oblivious to it and still sticking with IE for god knows what reason !! ....
... just yesterday I educated one of my friends on Firefox (how it is faster, how it is easier to close if hangs down, and how easy and common sense thing is the tabbed browsing thing) ....
Then I read the post by another Firefox lover here which also lists some "Hall of Shame Websites"
Well, I would say that is definitely an issue !! .. and the one which cannot be ignored.
I am not sure about rediff, but I faced similar probs while viewing "epaper" version of timesofindia.com or economictimes.indiatimes.com/
what irked me most is my company corporate site (accessible via intranet) also has troubles with firefox.
I think the time taken for an IE window to open and then for me to type website name and then hit enter and then load for the web page to be loaded and then follow the link is WAY TOOOOO MUCH.
Hence, I have found a shortcut --> I browse through firefox till the page firefox is supported.... then as soon as I reach a troublesome page, I'll open "Windows Run" and will type "iexplorer website name" .. hit enter ... surf the non FF supported page on IE ..... close IE as soon as I am done with that particular page !!!
Go Firefox Today !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My question to Webyantra’s readers- Have other people encountered similar problems with Rediff or do you know of other prominent Indian sites that don’t work on FF? Or is this a non-issue?

A couple of months back Citibank was offering "Don DVD" and now they are offering "1983 world cup CD" if you open an NRI bank account with them !!!
maybe itz me, but I find it both hillarious and annoying !!
If i have to open a NRI bank account with some bank I think last thing would be to find out which DVD is the bank offering with the account.
But citibank guyz must have done their homework to launch these kind of campaigns (these ads / banners are pretty regular on yahoo, at least on my yahoo mail account.) Or maybe there are some weird keywords with my yahoomail account that make them think that if they offer me a Don DVD or a 1983 world cup DVD, then I'll open up an account with them.
(ps - i dont know why I am blogging this, but there was this sudden urge to blog something and here it is.)

No offence to my mallu friends (and I have lots of them) ... but "a mallu rock song" is one of the funniest vids / concepts which i have come across lately.
These people might be famous among mallu junta, but to me they seemed nothing more than bunch of jokers.
