    Firefox isn't that great of a browser. The only thing it has going for it is its massive add-ons library.

    If you're after something that will browse the internet quickly, Google Chrome and Apple Safari are better bets.

    I have a few extensions in Firefox that I use from time to time, so it just gets fired up when I need it.

    Otherwise, I leave it alone.

    The only point I would make is that there have been privacy concerns with Google Chrome. It is worth doing a bit of research on to make sure you are happy - if that sort of thing worries you.

    For example:

    Other than that, it is a matter of preference I guess - personally, I find Firefox suits me much better.

    The features that raise privacy concerns with Chrome are opt-in though.

    Kaspersky wasnt keen on the speedy fox download though
