It is a billion times better. At first, i was reluctant to change from IE to firefox, because i wanted to "stay with microsoft" but when i started using firefox, i completely deleted IE off of my computer.
ITS AWESOME.

Yes firefox is alot better because IE is only updated every once and a while and they dont really care if you need to use the internet or not and it isnt as user friendly. With firefox it is updated as often as possible and it is easy to use. Plus it sounds better as well so everyone should get with it.

IE has alot of security holes that are intentionally designed into the software. This causes massive problems and no benefits. Firefox does not have those holes.

IE's technology is just to dangerous to keep using.
United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team:
"There are a number of significant vulnerabilities in technologies related to the IE domain/zone...It is possible to reduce exposure to these vulnerabilities by using a different web browser"

These vulnerabilities equal spyware and viruses an your computer, stolen ID etc.

I use firefox everyday. I guess it could be just a matter of opinion but I'm just more familiar with firefox. I like it better.

Absolutely, tabbed browsing plus thousands of extentions and plug in that have NOT been written for the other plus its a small memory footprint and I find quite a jewel on the speed of lading multiple pages, I hav like 5 page I use every day, mad a folder then bookmarked them all in it and now I open bookmarks, go to the folder the bottom option i open all in the folder at once. That alojne makes it the browser of choice plus you can use about:config in the url line and set all kinds of thing you cant with other browsers.

I like it better. I originally downloaded it because I heard it's more secure, now I like the other features like multiple tabs and how it memorizes your passwords for you.
