I switched from Internet Explorer to Mozilla Firefox about two years ago, and today I have never regretted that decision. IE is vulnerable to a variety of security threats, a problem that even the US Computer Emergency Readiness Team (CERT) has recently acknowledged by warning users to dump IE and switch to another browser. Based on my experience with IE, the warning has merit. When I was still using IE, spyware, trojans, pop-ups, and other viruses kept on attacking my computer. There wasn't a day when no virus would suddenly appear, despite having installed McAfee anti-virus, Ad-Aware, Spybot, and Spyware Blaster programs. When I switched to Firefox, there have been no more annoying viruses and pop-ups. And that's only one of the many advantages of Firefox over IE. The speed, stability, and ease of use are just amazing. To sum it up, I think Firefox has been godsend to me.
Guys, feel free to disagree with me if you think Internet Explorer is better than Firefox. For Firefox users, this is also your chance to tell us what is good or bad about this browser.

Hi irreverent, 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 am using firefox !i begin to use this after i joined mylot!it is simply amazing!i think it is the best browser now available.it is free also easy.here is my review on this product
---can be used as internet explorer by an extention called "ietab" so it is flexible
---allow tab browing(though opera and ie7 support tab browsing i like firefox for its simplicity)
---it is completely free!
---last but not least it has a feature of post data again when connection reset or want a refresh...so dont get irritated about typing again!
