Let's face it: for advanced file manipulation, Windows File Explorer stinks. But like Firefox is a must-have replacement for Internet Explorer, a file manager called Xplorer2 blows Windows Explorer out of the water for anyone who browses multiple folders, copies, pastes, moves and searches the PC filesystem frequently.

I've been using a file manager called Power Desk since Win95 was released many years ago and it has been the best one I can find. Check it out. |

Hi, "Firefox is a must-have replacement for Internet Explorer", don't make me laugh. It's different but no better and no more secure. Yet another myth being perpertrated... cuke2u |

I've been using Xplorer2 for a few years now. Very nice alternative to Explorer. |

So why are FF and IE mentioned in the article you thick tw*t. Perhaps if people (ff fanboys) stopped trying to push FF sh*te down our throats then you wouldnt get commens about it. The article draws a comparison between "default" replacements of software, cuke2u is merely stating he doesnt agree with it... neither do I!!!! |

FF fanboys should stop trying to force their rubbish down our throats by mentioning the software when it is not necessary for them to do so. |

And, what about IE fanboys...I use both browsers as they are good for different things; nor do I have a preference for one or the other and that goes for Linux & Windows as well. |

Haha, you see, say anything that's anti FF and you get a imature answer. Really you guys need to grow up and except that there will alway someone who claims something is bigger and better when it isn't. Must be a guy thing lol..... ChrisC |

dumb ass, you are missing the point..... no one claimed in the article that IE was better than FF. The complaint was about the FF fanboys and their insistance on claiming that the browser is better than anything else.... it isnt |
