I use Firefox and have been for a long time. How many of you guys use Firefox or still use Internet Explorer? I like Firefox because it has many different add-ons.
 
Firefox is the greatest. Much tighter security than Internet Explorer. Easier to use. Fantastic!!
 
I used IE for the longest time and eventually switched over to Firefox. I did this largely because of things like tabbed windows. The smaller details that Firefox developers put into it made me like it more than IE.
 
I still use IE and will continue to do so.
firefox is cool but it was always buggy for me no matter how many times I tried it.
IE just works , and if you use the right tools you dont need to worry about security too much. ;)
 
I like Firefox. But when pics don't load correctly, you can't right click and hit "show picture" like you can with IE.

I don't use IE or Windows.

I use Mozilla, Opera, and Firefox web browsers on Linux.
 
Firefox, Haven't used IE in years.

I've used several others, but settled on Firefox a while back, have it on my MS and Linux machines.

The only time I use IE is for a very few sites which do not function well on Firefox. For instance, PC Pitstop (an online testing utility).
 
I often use Firefox, and enjoy using it, however accidently engaging extra tabs can be annoying. I also use netscape, from my ISP, and IE periodically as well.
 
If some pages dont load in firefox you should download the IE tab. All you have to do is click a small icon and the page reloads using the IE engine.

I don't use either, I prefer Opera

Same here. I have been using Opera for over 6 months, and I love it. The mouse gestures are awesome, I enjoy playing Tetris using the widgets function, and the voice-recognition is nifty (although I don't use it). Opera is the most feature-filled browser, along with being the fastest. I have used Firefox before Opera became free, and I definitely think that FF is way overrated.
 
I use Firefox.

I keep IE around for updates and for viewing sites that are IE-exclusive.

I know about the IE View and IE Tab exensions for Firefox, but they don't always function correctly.
 
I use both, but then again, I operate in Linux as well as Windows. If you are working with heavy duty galleries (tons of JPG images) IE has a speed edge, but then again, who wants to get 0wned by hackers....?
 
never had good luck with firefox-lots of quirks and not reliable
netscape aol-tried it this past week and it had many problems-
just loaded opera-will give it a shot
 
I use Firefox for 99% of browsing. The only time I use IE is if I go into an MSN Messenger group or one of their chat rooms. MSNM doesn't seem to accept Firefox.:confused:

I then have to scan the computer with Adaware when I leave, to get rid of all the spyware allowed in by IE.:barf:
