Default Faster browser?

Ken,

Is there something faster that also works well I can
use on my old XP system?

That fully depends on what you expect your browser to be
able to do (and as you did not mention that ...)


Gmail, Google News, Google and weather.


Than no. Those are most likely fluffed-up with sh*tloads of javascript,
which makes them slow no matter what you do.


I'm using Firefox 41.0.1, which was less bloated, and speeded up a
lot. Google keeps warning me that it can only show me HTML in Gmail,
which is faster and easier to use.

Facebook keeps threatening that it is going to stop supporting it, but
also won't let me into my main account, for which I use Maxthon.
