    Worldwide usage of non-IE browsers is now approaching 50%. This helps move the web forward as non-IE browsers are far more technically advanced than Internet Explorer.

    Great! I'm also a huge fan of Firefox. The latest Firefox Web Browser is faster, more secure, and fully customizable way to surf the web.

    Awesome, I used to use IE religiously lol. I was reluctant to use Firefox because I didn't want to change. I use nothing but Firefox now so yeah.

    Fire-Fox is good. I've used it for a very long time. Here is my "However" However, the latest version 3.5.1 has caused my computer to crash. The easiest way to fix that problem is to remove the 3.5.1 FF and replace lit with the older version. I did that.

    Another "HOWEVER!" However, I went out and bought a new HP to replace my dumped DELL. before I heard the idea of replacing the FF. That was $500 USD down the flusher. :mad:

    So now I have two working computers. The high side I guess is that I can get a "router" and use both of them online. :rolleyes:

    RT... :cool:

    I have been using Firefox for the past 6 months and it truly is a better browser than IE. It's good that more and more people are using it, which could push the Microsoft people to think of ways on how they can make a better and more secure version of IE.

    I have to add one more comment on the great FIRE FOX.

    the 1st comment was that version 3.5.1 crashed my computer.

    My 2nd comment is this. The edit feature in my WordPress blog does not work when I use FF as the browser.

    I found that out this morning when I tried to edit a post. :(

    I switched back to Explore and everything is working ok now. :rolleyes:

    FF is good but it does have it's drawbacks like everything else.

    I'm not saying that FF is not good. I used it for years. But, and a big but at that, it does have some glitches in it. :D

    I have a new HP computer that I loaded with FF as the browser. Everything was fine untill I had to edit a post in my WordPress blog. The editor did not work.

    I then loaded IE Explore and tried the WP editor again to makes some changes in my blog post. It worked.

    I probably have the only Hewlett-Packard that does this just to give FF a black eye.

    And, BTW, I have set the Explorer to do the same as FF. I'm sure that I am probably the only one of the "Billions" of FF downloaders that has a negative thought about FF and I'm truly sorry. ;)

    FF is good. Long live IE Explorer! :rolleyes:
