Use Newer Web Browsers

An alternative browser to Internet Explorer on PCs and Apples is Firefox 3.0. Found as a free download from http://www.mozilla.com .
It is more capable, may be more secure and less trouble prone than Internet Explorer or Safari (Apple). Firefox is the best browser for Moodle and Google use.

On Apples, especially older models, the browser "Camino" may provide access to new enhanced websites.
Camino can be downloaded from: http://www.mozilla.org

Safari 3.1, a new version for Apples and PCs is available.
