OK, I've tried FireFox again for the third time (and 2 days testing) after I heard there was a new version. My results are the same....IE still wins hands down. I've tried all the FireFox speed tricks, but IMHO it's nothing more than an illusion that makes it appear to be loading faster than IE, but there's no difference in the final results. Although IE isn't perfect, I like the right-context options I can apply, download managers work better, my financial sites work were FireFox doesn't, and for me personally an extra window is preferable to tabs, although either is OK. Bottom line, FireFox is a bunch of hype, and IE delivers more of what I want.

Call me wacko and non-mainstream, but I don't care. The first time I tried Netscape back in 1995 it sucked and IE worked to my liking, and I find the same true today.

Bad Firefox
i used the new firefox for a week when it was first released and i some how recieved 2 trojans. i would have thought firefox had some sort of security against things like that. i never had anything wrong with internet explorer, i went back to IE because of the trojans. not very secure if u ask me!

About the only time I use firefox is when i go to ceritan sites. As for anything else I use Maxthon. Firefox has to many things wrong with it. And, I also don't like how people are listening to a 20 year old kid when it comes to security. Like he would know what he is talking about.
