I am noticing that my program is running slower in Internet Explorer than Firefox. If I have a sprite move from one edge of the screen to the other, it will take about four seconds in Firefox, but about 4.5 seconds in Internet Explorer. Anyone else come across this? Any tips on minimizing the speed differences?

Also, what browsers do you test your games on? Firefox and Internet Explorer come to mind. What about Netscape? I've also heard of other browsers (Opera?, Safari?) but I have never used them. Do all of these support Flash?

Thanks,

Anything over Internet Explorer. Firefox and Opera are the best so far, IMO, and Chrome will probably catch up as Google tweaks it.
