Hiya,

I use Firefox and have done for years now. It is far superior to IE and when you install it it doesnt overright or disable IE.

You can use both at the same time if you like.

I like how you can open more than one window tabbed in the same window so unlike IE it doesnt clutter up your task bar.

Go for it what have you got to lose. Its easy to install and easy to uninstall. Also most browser hijacks are made for IE so you dont have this problem with firefox.

yep, its a great browser, remeber to set yur securty and cookies to the highest possible setting in IE when you decide not to use it again becasue it still open to attacts even if your not using internet explorer. ANd yeah remember to check out different theams for your firefox browser to make it look pretty becasue that is very important.

firefox is pretty new, i use it. i like it better than I.E. thanks for the theams reminder Omun. i`ll have to check that out also. peace.

Don't get your spelling leassons from me poorman3. The correct spelling for theams is themes, and you can find those and other extensions at https://addons.update.mozilla.org/

Wardrobe, one of the best parts of Firefox is that it's not as closely knitted to Windows as IE is. So, naturally you don't have to worry about problems with IE.

IE is obsolete to me. They only do any real updates to it maybe once or twice a year. Firefox gets updates much more often. Meaning, increasingly better stability and many more features. I've been using Mozilla/Firefox for well over a year and I have had no problems or complaints when compared to IE.

thanks again Omun, i just woke up. i spelled it right the first time and backspaced it. i should have went with my first choice i guess.

i got the firefox browser and im usin it now,its pretty good although i cant get to grips with the tabs so i can have different sites on the 1 window????

you sure can wardrobe grower press Ctrl+T for a new tab. To shuffle through your tabs that you have open press Ctrl+Tab, and to close outta tabs you dont want to close your can press the the little x icon for that tab or press Ctrl+W.

I like how you can make a link open up in a new tab by pressing the middle mouse button (the wheel) and you can also close a tab by middle-clicking it. IE doesn't even compare to this browser.

Well i learn something new everyday :D thanks for the tips ermitonto

yeah firefox is awesome. no pop-ups at all. i would recommend it to anyone who doesnt aleady use it.

I started using Mozilla a long time ago and never looked backed. If there was no Firefox I don't believe I would use the internet.
