Get Firefox. IE is too risky, and Firefox works better. A related thread:

I have FireFox and would not go back to IE for anything! FireFox is superior to IE AND Netscape. (Not to mention more reliable)

I just yesterday installed Firefox and WOW!!!! I will never go back to IE. IE had gotten so slow and I assumed it was just my computer/Internet provider. I installed Firefox and it's like turning pages in a book. Not only that, I have yet to do the pipelining tricks to speed it up even more!

Tabbed Internet surfing is incredible! How did I manage without that?

My only complaint is that when I am viewing a FR thread and I hit refresh, Firefox goes to the last post at that time, rather than putting me back to the post I was on and loading the new posts below that. I have to scroll back up to find where I was when I hit refresh. This has to be something I can set in the options, but I can't find it. Anyone have any ideas?

I tried Firefox and found it slooooow. (T1 connection).

I've used Opera in the past and it's good and fast.

It's getting to the point where Firefox has become the official browser of Free Republic.

I love Firefox. Unfortunately, IE is still necessary for a number of sites that I visit. And when I do personal web design, you still have to code for IE.

well i think people need to know the political affiliations of firefox (which is made by mozilla). take a look at this called the mozilla party:


or look at some of their other ads





This one should settle all doubt:


If you dont have any problem with innocent blood on your hands, use firefox.

Pivx's Qwik-Fix disables ALL dangerous Active X controls by default so hackers can't exploit vulnerabilities in Internet Explorer. And of course it helps to put all malicious sites into the Restricted Zone via IE-Spyad or if you have the Agnis blocklist, you can export them into your Norton Personal Firewall Ad Blocking section. Practice safe computing and the phishers will be left out in the cold. Merry Christmas, every one!

I have Firefox. Where is the fix to make Adobe PDF files work? I need to install it ASAP.

Actually this was patched in Service Pack 1.
