A decision to move from Internet Explorer to Firefox is a decision involving trading one set of attributes for another. Each individual will need to weigh the pros and cons and make a decision based on their own needs. Windows XP users on the face of it, have a real alternative to Firefox. They can stay with IE by installing XP Service Pack 2 along with IE7. So what do I think? There is no doubt that Firefox is currently less of a security risk than IE6. In particular it is way less liable to Spyware infection. There is no doubt that IE7 offers better security then IE6 and maybe as good as Firefox 2. However IE7 will remain a target for malware writers simply because of its popularity. So to me, security is the bottom line here. Yes, Firefox offers faster browsing. Yes, there are hundreds of free Firefox extensions to customize and optimize your browsing experience. Regards

i prefer MOZILLAA FIREFOX. it suits my need better than internet explorer. new version of IE is mor ecomplex & is difficult to use but mozilla gives u cool themes so that u can change the way ur browser looks, it prevents any kind waste informations to come like IE always show download this anti-virus or this spyware ( u may not these things ) but firefox never do this,,,,it only show what u hav asked for....... USE FIREFOX

I prefer mozilla it is the best.More faster browsing because it does not allow flash content in a page.

Mozilla Firefox for me because of it's customizable interface. You can add themes and add-ons to make it more functional and suit your needs.

Hi zurcayin, I like mozilla firefox because it is much secured when compared to internet explorer. It has an advanced security feature which makes it safe to use. I like also the add-ons, plug-ins, and extensions of mozilla, thus making it more useful. However, I also used IE because there are some websites that cannot be opened by mozilla, so I used it rarely. Have a nice day and God speed!

I prefer Firefox. I feel safer browsing here and have all add-ons I need. The only thing to complain is the lack os memory, that sometimes irritates me, but still it's not comparable to IE lack of everything. Now I just feel uneasy trying to browse in IE.

Well I too was using IE5 for long time.When I heard about mozilla, I just tried out.I found that mozilla is more faster in loading than IE.And also IE wont support many features supported by mozilla(Tabbed Browsing,History of Download,....).Mozilla will pop-up for any needed plug-ins so that you can install without thinking why IE doesnt support any pages.Like any videos clip to be watched in online...................

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 always used Internet Explorer until a few months back. I was having problems with Explorer so decided it was time for a change. Mozilla Firefox has been 100x better than Explorer for me anyway. It has great features called add-ons you can get from their site for free to almost fully customize your browser. Download status bar is a good one that I have, and also ebay companion thats AMAZING! Loads of other things for it too like 'skins' where you can pick a theme which may have better button designs and colours. Really good!! I'd recommend it to anyone... And will hopefully not look back!!

I have both on my computer. I prefer Firefox (prefered it before IE 7 was released due to the tabs i love tabbed browsing) i like the find feature of firefox that appears in the bottom left hand corner while you are typing out the word rather than in a separate box. I will use internet explorer for websites that arent designed to be used with firefox but for the rest i prefer firefox. Its all a case of what features and looks do you like. Do you like the convenience of all the plugins for IE being readily available or so would you mind occasionally having to do with out using some features because firefox is incompatible
