I've been using firefox for a couple months now actually. I guess its not the official version? I guess time to update it *hop*
A few things. No more popups! *drool*. Also, it handels bad code better than IE, because people write on their websites bad code to take advantage of the vulnerabililies of IE. I haven't had a problem with Firefox yet.
Me personally, I didn't install flash in my firefox yet. Some sites will not worth with firefox, so sometimes I fireup IE (unfortunately). If there is a site in flash that I need to see the flash, I"ll fire up IE, just because I like my firefox as basic as possible (some flash is just annoying).
Try firefox. Its very nice. But, the version I have has some stability issues. Once a week it will crash out on me. But, well. No worries.

Make sure you click on the link I posted above (or the one in my sig). Also, there will now be a "download" tab on top of flash sections, and when you click it you will be able to download the necessary plug-in.

The firefox browser needs an add-on extention which allows the user to highlight text and then immediately send it to the printer without having to copy it to the clipboard.
Once in awhile I'll come across a paragraph that I like, or a review that I want to read in print, and I need to highlight the text and copy it somewhere to be printed.
It would be nice if I could just highlight the text with my mouse pointer, right click and select "print text", and it will automatically take care of all the steps in between.

That shows the true magic of FireFox, being able to find a way to get around a problem using an extension ....... even if it is an extension to a microsoft product :eek:
