But IE6 is available on Windows XP only.
Google Chrome is buggy.
Sometimes I get invisible walls and buildings in certain maps.
But those walls and buildings exist in those locations, you just cannot see them!
Any kind of emulator (or virtual machine) is a recipe for troubles and failures.
Not to mention that it's a wasted processing power.
The best approach is a dual boot: Win 7 / Win XP.
I have it on all my computers for a long time ago.

(If you have "right-click menu" issues while using Firefox:)
I run the latest version (v29) and everything runs smooth.
The game by itself disables the Firefox context menu (triggered by Right Mouse Click).
It's impossible to disable "Shift + Right Mouse Click", so pay attention and don't press them both at the same time during the game.
But even if you do that, just press the "Windows" key twice (it's near left 'Ctrl') to get rid of the Firefox context menu.
Now ...
If you get the Firefox context menu with Right Mouse Click only, there is something wrong with your Firefox settings.
You may try this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... nu-editor/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Install it, click on Tools / Add-ons / Menu Editor 1.2.7 Options
and make the "Main context menu" invisible.
Once again, I can't say enough about the difference in my gameplay experience now that I am using the Firefox browser. I had used Chrome for a couple of years and thought it was fine. But now that I've successfully made the switch, it is so much better! I urge anyone who is currently using Chrome to either use IE6 (with Windows XP) or try Mozilla Firefox. If you have an issue with the right-click menu popping up, try the remedy above. It's definitely worth the effort to change!
