You mean Mozilla. Mozilla doesn't seem to have as many known vulnerabilities in it (not saying it doesn't have any vulns--everything does), and it comes with a better popup blocker. Also, IE is targeted A LOT more than Mozilla, so you tend to get more spyware from using IE. But there have been a few known vulns with Mozilla in the past few months. Just update it when it tells you there's another update, and you should be fine. I highly doubt anyone would target you, unless you are going to a website that is completely about compromising people's boxes through their web browsers. Mozilla is better in my opinion, but one problem with it is that it seems to not have certain plugins built into it from out of the box, so you'll need to install a plugin if you're going to go to YouTube with it to watch videos and shit.

i think it has an all around better look. Also it has tabbed browsing, so you can have 10 or so pages up, but its still in one window.

Yes, that is another good quality about it.

I dont really know anything about computers and such but I find that its just a lot nicer to use

thanks :jointsmile:

I've allways dugg slimbrowser (IE based). Mozilla is cool in it's own right though. I've used the new IE7 and firefox and they both seem just as good to me.

Yeah, that pissed me off for ages, not being able to watch vids. I kept having to copy and paste the links into ie cos i was too fucked to fathom out how to download the plugins. But im just using ie now, my firefox fucked itself up.

Everything...


Firefox PWNS I.E.

MODZILLA - is the way moderators act for the first year of their "modship"
This site had 3-4 new mods at the same time about a YEAR or so BACK... It was a freaking MONSTER FEST.
