Firefox! Less issues since hackers are always trying to mess up IE/Windows/Microsoft.\n\nMake Firefox your main browser but keep IE for certain pages that don't show up well in Firefox. You can also do as the person above said, download the IEtab addon.

FireFox v1.5 is safer than IE because it doesn't run Active X, a component of Microsoft software.  In the new version of FireFox v2 to be release later this year, Mozilla will have made it more secure, but at the same time, Microsoft will be releasing version 7 of its web browser, Internet Explorer.\n\nAt the current time, FireFox v1.5 is more secure.

At present, Mozilla Firefox wins the race.\nVersion 1.5 introduces several new features, including an improved software update system, a new option to clear private browsing data, drag-and-drop reordering of browser tabs, and more robust pop-up blocking.\n\nAs more users continue to abandon Internet Explorer, Mozilla's popular Firefox gains traction in the browser space. Version 1.5 of Firefox offers a few notable features, foremost of which is the ability to reorder tabs by dragging and dropping them. You'll also find a tool that lets you quickly clean up your surfing history with two clicks of the mouse or a hot-key combo. The latest iteration of the browser seems more responsive than it has in the past and also is more efficient; with 10 windows open, Firefox consumed slightly less RAM than either IE or Opera.\n\nIf you're new to Firefox entirely, you'll appreciate the other features, including the RSS feeds, the JavaScript debugger, the basic download manager, and the ability to search several popular sites (such as Google) directly from the address bar. You can easily create toolbars by dragging and dropping icons. More technically minded users will appreciate that Firefox displays the page source in a new window, using indents and color-coded tags like an HTML editor. The built-in pop-up blocker is still extremely effective, and Firefox's reuptation for tight security is still well deserved. Anyone who's tired of IE will find more than one reason to like this free alternative.\n\nTop Ten Reason To Switch To Firefox:\n1. Tabbed Browsing - Makes surfing the web faster\n2. Popup Blocking\n3. Find Stuff Easier\n4. Simplified Privacy / Annoyance Eliminator\n5. Better Bookmarks and History\n6. Accessible, Intelligent, Responsive\n7. Customizable and Extendable\n8. Modern Download Manager\n9. Built for standards\n10. KISS (Keep It Simple and Straight-Forward)

I can't beleive your still using IE. Firefox is much better and faster. got to mozilla.com it is a free browser and with the "fasterfox" extention you will be surprised at the speed. (firefox does read html slightly differntly so on a small percentage of websites, the page is displayed slightly differently)

There are at least three browsers that are better:\nFirefox, Opera and Mozilla.\n   The main reason being that they are all much safer to surf with than I E or I E based browsers such as DeepNet Explorer or Avant.\n   Also Firefox and especially Opera are faster and come with an integrated rss/xml-feeds reader.\n   Another thing is that there are hundreds of useful and excellent plugins for Firefox.\n   Moreover Mozilla, Opera and Firefox let you see the webpages as they should be seen. I E is hopeless in that regard.\n   I would say: try it and see for yourself. You'll drop I E...

Firefox\n9.5/10\nEverything about it is great except for the few remaining pages that refuse to work properly, forcing me to *groan* open them in IE.

It could be because of the compatibility issues. Firefox is written as a general program to cover multiple versions of multiple operating systems.\n\nWhereas IE is programmed for use more specifically, yes there is an IE for mac, but the IE will operate more efficiently on older systems, because it is coded for that hardware.\n\nAlso IE is better for handling dial-up connections because it makes less server requests, whereas Firefox uses a lot of bandwidth.

I use both. But I like Firefox better. It seems to run better. no pop-ups, easy to clear history & cookies. I just like it allot better. You should try it for your self and see. I think Mozzilla Firefox has Microsoft going crazy.

Firefox! IE was not originally intended for the internet. It was intended as a mainframe for ur comp. Thats why if ur IE crashes ur whole comp does too.

Something that others missed is that don't use Internet Explorer at all. Rather use the free Firefox browser from Mozilla. Many spyware attacks exploit the vulnerabilities of Internet Explorer. Mozilla Firefox is relatively more secure and gives you a better surfing experience with tabbed browsing and customization using extensions.

Well dear there are really some strong reasons to support firefox first of all it is the one of most secure browser, spywares don't usually hijack its homepage at least i haven't heared yet anyone's firefox effected or hijacked by spywares etc. the proof of IE flop is its version 7 beta which proved and admitted by microsoft to be totally failed in security tests...So I will say FIREFOX because every good computer user is using firefox n alot of others are now coming towards firefox and soon it will become a standard browser...so use it leave IE...

Do not use Firefox, it's the worse browser out there. Only good because it uses minimal processor power but because of that, you lose lots of other things you should get from a browser. I'm using Firefox 2 because my computer is pretty crappy and IE runs a bit slower and I'm impatient but IE is so much better. Firefox crashes numerous times a day, can't run plug-ins correctly, but oh well, crappy service for minimal system specs. Check your options.

Download Firefox - Your IE is probably buggy.

Give up. It's impossible to make IE do ANYTHING properly. That's why everybody uses Firefox or Safari.
