    Your Mission: Get Under 50
    What percentage of visits to your site are with Internet Explorer? Check your stats. If it's more than 50%, you've got some serious work cut out for you...

    Think how psyched you would be if less than 50% of your sites' visitors used IE. It's a good target: ambitious, but achievable. So we thought we'd make it a friendly competition.

    Here's how it works: if you want to you can turn on code in those scripts that will pass stats to our site about the percentage of IE users who visit. When you get under 50% IE usage, you'll show up in the list below (coming soon!). It's like a hall of fame.

    There's even an "Under 30" and "Under 10" section for the overachievers (sorry, mozdev.org is ineligible). So install the script and join the race.

    About us
    We are four politically-oriented friends who care about open source software coming out on top. We've thought about doing something like this for a while now, and Google's "bounty" sealed the deal. If we make some referral money ourselves, we get to do more stuff like this. We wrote this open letter, too:

    Why we made Explorer Destroyer


    Other miscellaneous stuff

    Here's some miscellaneous bits of information and wiseass remarks that we didn't know how to fit in the page. They're like website outtakes.

    Caveat: the only catch is it's Firefox + Google Toolbar and you only get $1 for users in "certain locations" (presumably rich countries). A deal-breaker? We didn't think so.

    Slogan idea: It's like Google is your sponsor in the MS Readathon, except it's the MS Fuckoverathon** and you keep the money!
    **By "MS" here we mean "Microsoft"
    Get this tool for switching people from IE to Firefox.
    For each person you switch, Google gives you $1, Microsoft loses marketshare, and an angel gets its wings.

    Screenshot of the script in action (also see the demos below).
    Switch your users to Firefox and make money.

    You already want people to switch to Firefox. Now's the time to get serious about it. Google is paying $1 for each new Firefox user you refer.

    This is pretty amazing. Now you can advance your ideals, save people from popups and spyware hell, and make some serious money. Millions of people have heard about Firefox and are ready to switch--all they need is a friendly push.

    That's where these scripts come in. They're specially formulated to give just the right push, maximizing souls-saved and dollars-for-you.
    How do I do it? (it's easy)

    1. You need a Google AdSense account to make referral money for each user switched. If you don't already have an account, click this button to sign-up:

    2. Download the script and follow the installation instructions. It's very easy to install, just copy and paste.
    Additional Versions: There is a Drupal module and an XSLT version. The scripts will also work with web software like Wordpress (install instructions) and Movable Type (we'd love help writing specific install instructions for different tools, email tyc@explorerdestroyer.com).

    Squid Proxy version: Joe sent in this "configuration for the open-source Squid proxy to deny users of IE access through the proxy. This way, Squid administrators can force a sweeping change across their entire userbase, not just the ones who visit Explorer Destroyer-supporting sites." Download Squid Proxy Config
    Three settings: Gentle, Semi-serious, and Dead-serious

    When you install the script on your site, you can decide how much force you want to use to convince your users to switch away from the dark side:

    Level 1: Gentle Encouragement Rating: $$
    Visitors using IE see a message encouraging them to download Firefox (with a download link) running across the top of the page.
    Level 1 Demo >> (the demo will pretend you are using IE)

    Level 2: Semi-serious Rating: $$$$
    Visitors using IE get a friendly splash page encouraging them to download Firefox. There's a download link, and a link to continue on to your site.
    Level 2 Demo >> (the demo will pretend you are using IE)
    Update: Xavier sent us this modified version of level 2 that will only show the splash page occasionally. Download it here and see a live demo here.

    Level 3: Dead serious
    Level 3 will not allow people using IE past a splash page. This level is very useful for sites that are not IE6 compatible. And there's never been a more important moment to switch people to Firefox. Can you handle it? (At least try it for a day to see how good it feels.) Unfortunately, level 3 is a little too intense for the Adsense policies, so for this level you'll have to use a regular, non-Adsense link to download Firefox.
    Level 3 Demo >> (the demo will pretend you are using IE)

    Better than just a button.

    Buttons (e.g. ) are classy, but most people need more of a push before they try something new.

    I mean, if your friend was dating a really obnoxious guy who smelled bad and slept around, you wouldn't just put a dump him button on your livejournal and expect the problem to get solved. That'd be practically passive aggressive.

    Plus, Windows Vista will be out soon. If Firefox doesn't get more users fast, Microsoft could be determining the future of the web. Those are high stakes, so it's time to take things up a notch.
    Which sites should use Explorer Destroyer?

    If most of your users use Internet Explorer, then you need Explorer Destroyer more than anyone. Sites with a lot of Internet Explorer users will also make the most money from Google Firefox referral fees, since you have more people to convert.

    If most of your users don't use Internet Explorer, then Explorer Destroyer is a perfect way to convince the rest of you users to switch. Most of your readers will never even notice it's there and you'll be doing a good deed at the same time.

    See how we get you both ways? Explorer Destroyer works for everyone.

  • FF schließt mit Fehlermeldung

    Hallo!
    Vielleicht könnt ihr mir ja helfen,hab zwar im Forum hier schon gesucht nicht wirklich das gefunden was mir hilft,außer ich bin zudoof das richtige zufinden :D
    Mein FF schließt sich seit einiger Zeit in unregelmäßigen Abständen immer wieder mit der Fehlermeldung: Firefox hat ein Problem festgestellt und muss beendet werden. (Dann kommt meist bei Neustart die Meldung das der FF schon läuft,das behebe ich immer damit,das ich im Taskmanager den Prozess abschieße..) Das schließen mit Fehlermeldung scheint sich nicht an bestimmten Websits zubeziehen bis jetzt waren es schon alle möglichen.
    Hoffe mein Problem ist hinreichend beschrieben und irgendjemand hier kann mir helfen?

    Danke!

  • FF hängt sich auf nach eintippen

    Hi!

    Ich hab ein recht ähnliches problem.
    Die Auslastung geht bis auf 100% erstmal geht garnix und meist muß mein FF dann beendet werden weil er ein Problem festgestellt hat. das is nicht abhängig von der Seite passiert immer wieder auf den Unterschiedlichsten Seiten, auch auf Seiten an denen ich grad nix mach,die sozusagen nur offen sind und sich nichts tut.
    Meine Firewall ist aus ich hab ne Standleitung und den FF schon zum zweitenmal installiert immer wieder das selbe...Version:1.5.0.7
    Beim IE passiert das auch nicht,mit dem will ich aber nicht surfen müssen...

    Kann mir da vielleicht jemand nen Tipp geben??
