Default Mozilla Firefox

I should've switched to firefox a long while ago, there are no more popups and pages load so much faster. Check it out for free www.mozilla.com.

you won't be disappointed, and you don't have to deal with spyware.

Yep yep, I've been using it for quite some time. Whenever people come up to me and tell me they have a problem with IE, I usually tell them to use firefox. I've been free from spyware for a year now! Great browser!

I also use Firefox. it is great, but I think IE loads up, and loads pages just a bit faster. not that it matters-- all the other benefits of Firefox totally outweigh the minor 1/2 second of loading time.

I use a combination of IE, Firefox, and Netscape interchangeably. I agree that I like Firefox but I sometimes have issues with plug-ins like Flash, media types, getting automatically spawned correctly.

IE never has a problem since it's so built into apps like media player, office, etc.

Ive been using FireFox since it came out. Let me tell you its only getting better.

As for IE running faster or loading faster, I cant really say. I haven't used it in soooo long that when I do have to it takes at least 30 seconds loading all the "MUST HAVE SECURITY UPDATES" that I dont need anyway.

In all the time Firefox has been out there has been only a few security updates that I have noticed. For me pop-ups are a forgotten term and spyware is becoming a thing of the past.
