Mom to Marty & Maddie Donating Member | I use Firefox. I like it that it has a better virus protection and is overall more secure. I also like that you can do more to customize and add plug-ins which you can't do with IE. |

| I use Firefox as well, but I have also played around with Opera and Safari, and I think they all have their advantages. Opera has a really cool feature called speed-dial, where you can set your nine favorite websites to the keyboard shortcuts of Ctrl+1-9 , or you can have your homepage look like 9 little windows with a preview of your favorite sites in them. However, Firefox has a plugin based off of Opera's Speed-dial, so I use that instead of Opera (since overall I don't like Opera's User interface). I also like safari from what little I use it , but the way I have it set up on my computer (I have the windows version running under a windows emulator in Linux... EEK!) makes it a little slow.

| I gave up on IE a long time ago, it's very unstable Firefox is faster and doesn't crash or freeze up like IE. I didn't like Opera because it's not compatible with a lot of sites, they don't display right

| I use Maxthon it is a lot like Firefox. which I use to use. I just kept having problems this year with my mouse and keyboard. Sometimes I still use Firefox. But I really like Maxthon I badly need to reformat my PC...I just hate doing all the reinstalls. |

| Firefox It is by far better for virus protection, spyware and pop-ups. I also like the tab feature on Firefox. IE really shouldn't be used if you don't have to in my opinion...

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | LOVE Firefox, mostly bc of the add-ons. I have the add-on that synchs your bookmarks on different computers - ie, if I add a bookmark here at work, it'll automatically be added on my home computer too. And, if I travel - I can access my bookmarks from any computer on the synchronizer. Love it!

Lovin' 2 Girls Donating Member | Thanks everyone! Well, I'm here in Firefox. One can't argue with overwhelming opinion . I haven't looked far enough to figure out the mail, though. Is it an add-on? Help? Quote:
