I installed Firefox tonight and my browser screams compared to IE. This weekend I am going to install a Linux OS. I have been getting too much BS with viruses, spyware, hackers, etc. It is a full-time job on top of the full-time job, especially when I'm taking down a few Islamist sites a month.....
Firefox has got its share of bugs/security problems, but I prefer it to crumby old IE as well. Hard to understand how anyone could stand using a web browser that welcomes popups and other garbage.
I suggest giving Xandros 3.0.2 Open Circulation Edition a try. I've been using Xandros since the 2.01 OCE days back in 2004. I'm planning on buying the 3.0.2 Business Edition next month.
