I can't run a lot of my old games on my computer, but that's just because my computer's so old now (6 years this September).

Netscape was my first browser outside of IE as well. Back in 2004 when I shared a Dell Laptop with my mother, we each had our own accounts on Windows XP and for some reason, while my mother could open IE on her account, I could not on mine. I'd always end up with a "This program has encountered a problem and must shut down" pop-up. I remember, at first, my mother didn't believe me when I told her this since she could open it.
She learned since then that I don't lie.

This was before I'd known of Firefox. That didn't happen until April 2005 when my father bought HP desktops for my mother and I and my cousin/uncle(yeah weird situation there) took it upon himself while setting mine up in my bedroom to put Firefox on it. From that point, I swore by it for years, it was excellent.
See my OP for why I ended up switching to Chrome a few years ago. To add to that, even though my Acer laptop was up there in age as it experienced problems with Firefox I'd been reading that Firefox had recently been known for an increasing amount of crashing incidents.
