I use IE only.

I've heard alot of crap about firfox, so I will never switch! Also, if I were to somehow download firefox, it will take up alot of space on my computer, and make it run slower.

When I'm on a Mac I use FireFox because I cannot stand Safari, but when I'm on my PC I use Internet Explorer. I never really liked how my computer handled FireFox (VISTA cannot handle anything.. ), so I just deleted FireFox and went back to Internet Explorer. Plus, I was having issues with FireFox deleting my history, favorites and settings without warning/reason and never really cared to investigate the problem.. So I got fed up with it and went back to Internet Explorer..

However, I do enjoy using FireFox time to time because of all the cool add-ons and features it does offer while Internet Explorer does not..

Donzii- Thats no FF, that's just Vista. It's like the Pinto of OS's

Firefox. Faster, more reliable, and safer then IE. Much less cluttered. Really doesn't use much RAM unless you have lots of tabs with lot-o-crap

How would you know if you have never used it? I've ran FF on the ****tiest of PC's before with much better stability then IE.

i use firefox for the security, but i'm also running V***a (thats a 4 letter word in itself) so it will sometimes quit working on me, but IE did that as well, so it not anything FF is doing. the only problem i have with FF is that i cannot upload photos from it on facebook, i have to use IE for that, but thats no biggie

Because I was told they suck. Some of my friends tried it, and it made there computer run slower. I have Vista, and I'm d**** near sure that if I download firefox, then it WILL slow down my computer by alot. Also, I have a wireless connection, and its bad as it is, I dont need something else to make it slower(its not slow, but it gets slow at time).

definitely firefox, much more reliable, safe and has more features which are easy to use.

and snowboi: WTH? downloading firefox will NOT make your computer slower if you have a good PC. just try it, if you don't like it then just delete it. how hard is that?

later T.I.M

I prefer FireFox. Way more features and applications, although my only complaint is that you can't get a new tab to open directly to your home page.

Use FF and IE about 50-50. Both on Vista which I have been running for nearly 18 months with zero problems. Would never go back to XP.
