Thanks to recommendations of freepers, I switched to Firefox a couple months ago and LOVE IT! Not only is it troublefree so far, my spyware shows it has decreased spyware being picked up by more than 90%.

I skimmed through the article. Where did you get Firefox? How much did it cost? I'm about sick of Windows.

I also agree. Thanks to the others on FreeRepublic, I gained confidence and downloaded FireFox. It is an incredibly sweet browser and within the first five minutes, it became our DEFAULT browser.

I just did a Spyware Sweep and it showed only 6 spywares for a period of over a week. Before Firefox I would have had at least 2 dozen spywares in that same timeframe.

I'm running Mozilla 1.5 with the Cookies set for me to allow/deny, the ONLY Cookie allowed is FR, I deny All others and have had ZERO Critters since 2 months ago when I did this.

IE SUCKS!
