[lozzy]

[MISTER WOO]

I'm on good old fashioned bog standard Internet explorer:)

Firefox all the way! Faster, doesn't hang and no more spyware invading my system.

This handy little plugin (https://addons.update.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?id=35&os=Windows&application=firefox&version=1.0.2&go=Go) for Firefox lets you right click on any page and have it display in IE for those times when you're viewing IE specific pages.

[Shenelle]

well i have both

Im a newbie to firefox, but will slowly get used to it and im sure i will be with that from then on!

[peewee]

I'd recommend Firefox to the standard user. I'm a geek so I sadly know how to deal with spyware and so forth lol so I have a choice. Personally I'm still rather attached to the feel of IE. I'm veeery slowly pulling away from it but that's a very slow process indeed. IE is still my old friend who I get on well with so I use it for common tasks. I use Firefox for forums and a few other niche styled sites. Soo my vote goes to Firefox cuz I use it on this site and I think I use them both about even otherwise.

how do you deal with spyware? I get infected and use my spyware scanner (adaware and spyware doctor) but they just dont find some spyware... do you have to download every possible scanner to get rid of all spyware...

I have Internet Explorer, and we have two putas, but one of them is seriously screwed up. All this spyware crap on it, and adware won't pick it up. So I always use the 'un-infected' computer. Anyways, I had never heard of firefox... Loz , care to explain why I should switch ;) Where do you get it from, and does it cost anything?

[nomore3x5]

Firefox ALL THE WAY!
Its soo much better!

it's free. just go to http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/central.html and it explains everything :)

as for why you should swap.... try it out and see for yourself ;) check out the extensions too....there are some handy ones :)

[Eyeliner]

Internet Explorer for me, didn't know there were any others!

[Puck0]

firefox all the way. i havent had one problem with this browser since i installed it.

tabs are the best thing ever.

and funny stuff, i have very little adware on this com now since i installed compaired to how much SHIT IE let in, even with that stupid security patch.
also, IE refuses to work on my com now. i hate it.

[.:mMm:.]

at work I use IE and mozilla

at home I use safari

[Mickey]

Does anyone here use opera? I'm using firefox and opera at the moment but I can't decide which one to keep.

[Miss_Kate]

I use firefox :)

[thatgirlmichelle]

I use Explorer, but a lot of people I know have said the same thing about Firefox. I would download it, but this is my mum's computer (well, so she says) and she's scary so I'm not going to risk it lol.

[vivy09]

i use safari - cuase it seems to be the default browser on this mac.
we have firefox as well but i dont use it much...when i had a pc i always used explorer...is miss IE *sigh*
