I have Internet Explorer...should I go to Firefox or would I lose all my "Favorites"?

Question

Any hassles switching over besides favorites AND would I want FF 1 , FF1.5 , or FF2 ? (I have older laptop)

Jibbarjahar, tho angry, seems to have made Firefox a mission popularaire.
But do i trust someone that has over 37 THOUSAND points in one year?

Answer 1

There should be no problems concerning your favorites. When you install Firefox, it will as if you want to "import" your favorites from IE. Just let it do so and all you favorites will be displayed in Firefox.

Answer 2

I would go with firefox as its much faster and secure, dont worry about favourutes when you go to install a box will appear asking if you want to imports stuff from another browser.

Answer 3

When you download Firefox, it comes complete with free membership in a cult religion. You will need to face the West and bow down and pray to your new god, Mozilla, at least 5 times a day.

Of course this "free" browser comes with a steep price. You will be encouraged to become an evangelist for the "cause" by being pressured to join the "Spread Firefox" propaganda campaign:
http://www.spreadfirefox.com/
You will be required to constantly spam newsgroups and forums (Yahoo Answers included). To anyone that posts or asks any question about Internet Explorer, you will be required to reply that the only solution is to dump IE and use Firefox. You will annoy people with shouts of "Firefox has a built-in pop-up blocker", despite the fact that Internet Explorer has had a pop-up-blocker ever since XP SP2...over 3 years ago.

You see, the truth has never been important to Mozilla / Firefox. They have their own socialist agenda.

You must understand that this religion, just like all the others, has its own devil, (Bill Gates), and its own Hell, (Redmond). From this day forward you shall devote your entire life to saving the world from Microsoft.

If, you become one of the chosen disciples of this cult, you will be allowed to help in the coding of new versions of Firefox. Of course you will not be paid for your efforts. Despite the fact that Mozilla Corporation had 2006 revenue of over over $70,000,000.00 USD:

It prefers to brainwash its followers into toiling for the Mozilla Mother-church for free. Slave labor is always best. Firefox / Mozilla Corporation loves to cry poor-mouth. And the lemmings always follow.

Of course the hierarchy of the church, such as High-Priestess and corporate president, Mitchell Baker, ARE well compensated for their work:

Funny how that works, isn't it?

I am surprised that Baker hasn't taken to wearing her own version of the Papal Hat:

Perhaps one made out of flea-infested fox pelts! It would certainly help to hide that hideous hair-do of hers;

Firefox...the browser of choice of pimply-faced, male adolescent fanboys, who are badly in need of female companionship; and aging hippies with gray ponytails.
