Yes great browser you can customize it using themes aned extensions to downlaod are automated bookmark backups, dictionary, sppofstick (shows you spoof sites). It also has tabbed browsing so no more extra browser windows if you perfer.
Also more secure than IE

It's a nice browser. Javascript console is much more informative than IE. Tabbed browsing is nice too. (been able to do that for ages though with Opera).
Some cool plugins as well.Hug provider for depression thread :grouphug:

We use Firefox now after having to reformat a PC because it was riddled with spyware. So far, so good. I prefer it to IE but you have to give it a fair try - for example, the toolbars needed a bit of tweaking to get them how I wanted them. I like the add-ons, for example,the search bar thingy where you can choose your search engines and do quick searches. I haven't explained it very well but it's useful!
I still use IE for a couple of sites that don't work with Firefox but that's all.0 -
Highley Recomended
Try it out youve got nothing to loose! Some sites wont load though (Very few and far between) this is down to the website programers not firefox... so keep internet explorer.It's better to travel hopefully than arrive...0 -
Yes dreaded M$ are one of them, but as said there aint many sited that dont support it. I have it installed on 4 pcs and is the default browser.

And most of the sites which wont load in F.F will if you use the extension IE View.
Can't think of any reason not to use F.F.Down south where, unfortunately, the government does remember us.0 -
My only gripe is that I can't buy my lottery ticket online with it, I have to switch to IE, other than that I have no complaints.The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it.0

THE WHOLE COUNTRY SHOULD USE FIREFOX
then maybe people would concentrate on designing sites that work in it.. it really really pisses me off when important sites don't work in mozilla - when mozilla is the browser that works with standards best - the job centre job search doesn't work which is stupid - as that's a government site they should know about accessibility laws!!0 -
If you're getting firefox you really must get the ieview extension.
All it does is put a little option in the right-click menu so that when a page won't work right, you can right-click and select "View this page in IE"
It's a tiny extension that does a tiny thing but it makes using firefox painless because you can move so quickly over to Internet Explorere when things don't work0
