Just lifted from the Traffic England website - 30 minutes delay and eleven minutes elapsed time forecast for journey to the incident. How does that work?

were you careful to make sure there were no porn toolbars at the bottom when you took that pic?

He has firefox loaded down the bottom if you look.

I still use IE, just for a completely different type of search.

Simple. When you get past the accident, all the local rescue people turn your clocks back 30 minutes so you think there's no hold-up.

That was a bit random! hehe

Seriously though, there are plenty of websites that don't work properly with other browsers. I've used a combination of Opera, Safari and Firefox over the years and I've always got IE handy for certain websites that only seem to run well in it.

It was like that with small changes to the forecast delay between 30 min and 10 min for an hour or thereabouts. All the time it was saying that you could average 60mph.

As for comments on the browser, I use Chrome, Firefox and IE variously dependent on site.

I thought that only 13 year old girls and paedophiles used Yahoo Messenger! biggrin

I have no idea re the original question. Maybe the OP should put it down to one of lifes little mysteries.
