Internet Explorer used to be the number 1 famous browser in the world as it came free with Windows so people didn't dare to buy another internet browser for them selves which may cost them a few extra bucks. now we have more competition so all the free wares are available through internet and we can easily download them. IE is gone now, the place i taken by Firefox Mozilla & Netscape at few places. In the ranking IE may stand at 5th or 6th place in Browser list. IE has been main source of spyware attacks as well and it blocks usefull scripts isntead of many malicious scripts from attacking computer. I ues Firefox and because of its high security (i feel) tabbed browing and password manager. which browser do you use?

Ahh. Good a fellow firefox user. Firefox is in my oppinion the best browser. It has so many add-ons to make it so customisable that it is just great to use. Netscape is good. I also have it on my computer but it is nothing compared to firefox. Opera is also good but again nothing on firefox. On Linux I even use firefox as Konqueror (sp) is not very good when you can have firefox as an alternative.

I use Firefox. IE freezes up a little too much for me. Plus, Firefox is the originator of tabbed browsing.

I love FireFox (i am using the newest version) It has everything i could need and want, it moves quickly and the best part of all is the themes and addons. It's a browser that allows you to be you. I could never go back to using IE, it stinks and i don't like it. If anyone reading this has never tried FireFox i highly recommend it.

I'm using firefox. I started using it because of the tabbed browsing, as I didn't want to have so many IE windows cluttered on my taskbar. Although now IE7 has tabbed browsing, but I'm still sticking to firefox:)

I use firefox just because it's faster on my computer and I does not crash as much as IE. I find IE very annoying at times so I just eventually switched over.

the firefox is fast?i do not think so.i use the internet explorer 7,i was thinking of trying out the firefox but wast not sure if u could use both browsers.i feel the FF is very slowly.sometimes i get page cannot be displayed using firefox and it does get a little frustrating when trying to do my programs,i was always reading that some of the sites work best bith the firefox but did not want to messup my computer and have compatability problems and such if i tryed so kind of held off on trying it .

Hello humaaaa, I also use Mozilla Firefox because of it's easy to set up options, all the add-ons, the security and it's password options. And also for the tabs, especially the tabs. :D And it's restore session feature in case of your system well crush. I don't use Internet Explorer any more, about 3 years ago. I had to use IE when I went to a friend and he didn't have Mozilla, that was a very frustrating day. And I advise him to download Mozilla Firefox because it's very good and it's free. Have a great day and good luck, my friend. ScarFace.

Well IE is a legend no offense and no denials too!! Yes IE has been the main source of virus and Spyware attacks, but stills lot has improved with IE 7 emulator! But personally I use Firefox if I'm mot on my notebook. I've seen lot of users still use Netscape. Dude its gone the company itself has abandoned it. Guys could you count me the list of browsers which stand atop. I've started a similar discussion plz do visit. Ya check out new lock browser. They call is the new social family browser..........

Hi, currently I am using opera. It is fast and safe to use like mozilla firefox. I like the fast execution of this browser especially when you are going to return back from your previously visited pages. Otherwise, I am so satisfied with it. However, I also used mozilla and IE if I need them. Have a nice day and God speed!
