Also, how do you set a different web page as the homepage?

Yes, everyone who knows better, uses Firefox, Safari, Opera, or anything besides IE.
Last I read (about a month ago) the current internet share on Windows machines was about 85% IE, and 15% of users on Firefox.
I love everything about it. Mostly though, everything is customizable, and can be tailored to my specific needs.
+ Faster
+ looks cooler
+ more secure
+ tabbed browsing, opening 10 pages at once is nice too.
+ Extentions like Weather Updates, and "Download Them All"
+ Themes/skins
+ "Begin finding when you type"
+ Search box that can search any site you want
+ I haven't seen a single Ad, or pop-up in almost a year.
And many other features.
Amazing program, comes highly recommended.

I'm glad I stopped using IE and now use Firefox because it never crashes. IE would get hung up on things and I've never had that happen with Firefox. I like the tabs feature too.

Yeah it is cool if you are using the same computer that other people use from time to time because if you are the only one using firefox than when you look up your history or bookmarks they are yours. That is if everyone else is using internet explorer of course.

I like the fact that I can use a piece of software that doesn't support Microsoft and which allows me to tailor it to the way I want it to look and feel. I have not found anything yet that I do not like about it and have been using it for over a year.

I really hate the menu..its a pain the the @ss compared to IE.. The whole idea is to prevent pop-ups compared to IE, and it either denies you access to sites, or you have to go back to IE anyway just to access things. I gave up on it.

Loads pages faster.
Tabbed browsing.
Multiple home pages.
No ACTIVEX crashes.
Skins.
Does not lose the favorites Icons like IE does.
