Wait... you mean it is no longer Beta but has reached 1.0 stage?

Cool beans.

He does a lousy job of assimulating if he is.

Nose i have been using firefox for a few months now, i can say that its the
best thing ive downloaded ina long time. it opens webpages alot faster than IE
the big blue E of death, evry once ina while ill forget and get reminded really quick
there are some pagfes that i still have to down load with IE though
some aplications dont have the PLUG IN for firefox, and thats been the only draw back to it

I have been using Firefox for over 6 months. Much better than IE. Easy to use, fast, free and easy to customize. It has a built-in popup-stopper and you can d/l countless extensions to modify the browser(ad blocker, image zoom, skins, etc.)

It is also much less susceptible to virus and spyware attack.

I have also been using Firefox for a few months now and I like it. Takes a little work and adjustment when you first start out but it is worth it. Havent opened IE in quite some time now.

Cobwebb hooked me on it about 8 months ago. It is way better than IE. I swear pages look sharper, but that could be I just upgrade graphics cards.

Personally, I may just stick with Avant Browser (www.avantbrowser.com). While it 'sits' on IE, it has a lot of features that I think FireFox lacks. Now, I have not finished playing with FireFox, so there may be some add-ins that make come closer to Avant.
