I love Mozilla Firefox!

[Fassa Albrecht]

Seriously, it's the best thing in the world. IE was jamming, not showing sites correctly and generally being a PITA. Upgrade to Firefox solved a lot of my problems.

I suggest you download the NoScript add-on.

What does that do???

As an FF user; I am also curious

I love the Tab browsing!!! IE caught on, but I still use Firefox.

It stops Javascript from running on your browser unless you specifically tell it to. Good for stopping annoying ads, popups and possible malicious background processes, among other things.

One thing to look at is the IE Tab add-on. It actually opens up a real IE tab inside FF (they look like and are positioned like FF tabs, but have an IE logo) for those sites that don't quite open correctly in FF (unfortunately, there are still a number).

I only use Explorer for one web-based application for work, because I have no choice. Firefox for everything else.

Does NoScript interfere with MacAfee? I've got the free comcast version

Not as far as I know. It doesn't interfere with Symantec Corporate Edition AV, if that's any help.

Thanks Guys

 

[Nikoubis]

Adblock Plus ftw.

Also, Gmail Manager.

 

[SuperDuck]

Morning Coffee add-on makes mornings fun! Keep up on your favorite webcomics, check Craigslist, new posts on TB, the news... good stuff.

Also, Yahoo Mail Notifier rocks. It checks your Yahoo mail account periodically and updates you if you get any email.

Almost as good as Safari, which I am enjoying more lately.

Fire Fox RULES! It took all the hassle out of web browsing. I can not imaging going back to IE.

 

[kevteop]

Nobody using [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]?

 

[Joe Gress]

I use fire fox at work, and man, I sure do wish I had it at home.
