Firefox is not slower and is definitely better at protecting you from viruses, spyware and adware, but if you have the proper protection then IE is just as good as Firefox. Personally I would go with Firefox (or Opera) because of tabbed browsing and extentions, but if you like IE then stay where you are.

@N00byStance and ragingspeedhorn: Can you back up what you're saying? As far as I know IE works if you're protected properly, and Opera is an excellent browser.

Couldn't resist to quote that sentence.

Firefox owns IE. Opera owns IE too. I've tried all three, I've found Firefox best. Why is it better than IE?

1. Tabs.
2. Safer.
3. Built-in search engines.
4. Download manager.
5. Extensions.
6. Themes.
7. Search hotkey combination is CTRL+F instead of CTRL+B.

There are more, but it is late here now, so I can't remember the rest.

Sure it's good but it's nothing compared to the fact that the search in Firefox is in real time. You don't have to press enter. 8)

extensions PWN!

you can get extensions for everything.

I have :

-Faster fox {even faster browsing}
-Mass Downloader Integration {a superb download manager}
-Context Style Switcher {Change Page Style via context menu.}


and there are a loooot of extensions , having so many things done by other people should mean it is good.
in fact is very good. FIREFOX FTW!

Code:
	Extensions 61 - 70 of 907  |  « Previous • Page 7 of 91 • Next »
	      Jump to Page: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16

Firefox is crappy. IE sucks. U want Safari :p

The thing is that safari is only offered on macintoshes. So if we use windows, then firefox would be the best. Basically on the whole opinion for me internet explorer= internet exploder. Firefox all the way! :p
