I prefer IE, but Firefox is king if you want loads of add-ons.
I think IE7 is amazing, with its tabbed browsing, the only real +ve to Firefox is tabbed browsing and IE7 does it now!

I like using Firefox more but most of the sites are made with Internet Explorer in mind. So there are some sites that are compatible with Internet Explorer but not Firefox. Firefox tends to be slightly faster. They are both pretty safe web browsers. Think about it though. Internet Explorer is made by Microsoft and it is made for the Microsoft operating systems. I guess you could say Internet Explorer is better.

Use Firefox for a week and you will see the advantages. ONLY use IE for Microsoft Updates.
IE is one of the most patched apps Microsoft ever wrote. Outlook Express is up there, too.
