Hi, There are many advantages for using IE7+ that comes with Windows Vista, be it 32bits or 64bits. -- Victor Constantinescu aka YounGun Security MVP http://victor-youngun.blogspot.com/ "Iceman_377" wrote in message news:c40252a80de4f86b10d11ffe25a62c58@nntp-gateway.com... > > What are the benefits of using X64 browser? > > > -- > Iceman_377

I thought so for a long time, but IE7 had a problem with javascript on several of my regularly-visited sites. I would use Firefox 2 for those. When Firefox 3 was recently released, I ended up using that exclusively. It whips ass on IE7... BAD. I'm going to pickup the IE8 public beta when it's released in the next few weeks and see how that is.

I can't find a site that does that now, but I can show you one of the problems. I regularly visit several big-city newspapers - some of them only to read their columnists. One is the Chicago Sun Times. Sometimes I will click on an image on their main page to open a link to more images with a clickable slide show. Today's has an example. Click on the PHOTO GALLERIES on the right side of the main page at www.suntimes.com . IE won't open it. If I click on the words PHOTO GALLERIES a page will open but I can't click through the slide show. Try it with Firefox and it works just fine either way.

Basically, a 64-bit application runs faster than a 32-bit one. But, in the case of a browser the 64-bit version is useless for daily usage. This is because most browser plug-ins (including Silverlight, Flash, Java and almost all ActiveX controls) only work in 32-bit browsers currently.

Ok it runs faster but is it also imune to some viruses and worms? because it's made in a 64 bit? -- Iceman_377

All programs are immune to some viruses and worms, so that is not a good answer. However it is probably true that less malware is written to modify 64 bit programs at this point in time. It is the environment it creates that most affects its ability to support malware, if that environment is equivalent to the one created by the 32 bit version, there would be no significant increase in security.
