It seems that in Google's enthusiasm to get lots of plug in developers, they don't actively check if the plugins are being used for legitimate purposes.

I have Firefox on my WInXP system and I think it sucks. It's a necessary evil required to download files from certain French FS sites who's files bounce if you use IE for some reason. At least Chrome
looks like IE.. Firefox is like something from Win3.1

Just change the 'skin' and you can make it look however you want it to look. There are hundreds (if not thousands) to choose from.

It seems like a lot of hard work just to use it with the frequency I do
I
do use it on my WinXP system to view FlyingStations which doesn't seem to like IE8 much but the alternative is to continue using IE11 on my Win7 system which does all I want and a lot more.. too much more to be honest. Bring back IE6!

Google are turning into late nineties Microsoft, but with less of a conscience.
