    IE isn't as easy to use as FF, but then FF crashes too often and is really annoying.

    My website doesn't work using IE 8

    This is the IE that comes with Windows 7 correct.

    Worth a try. Not sure about switching.

    Even if it does have better features, I've been completely turned off from Internet Explorer. Once I started using Firefox, I knew I would never go back.

    It crashes too much for me. I'm sticking with Firefox.

    No way ... I tried it out for few days but now am back to FF and Chrome ... It's way too sluggish compared to them

    It's not there yet (not better than FF3 anyway). It's 600% better than IE6...so i'm happy.

    I'll have to give it a try next week when I get my new laptop with Vista. Although, I really like the available add-ons for Firefox...

    IE can try, but it will never ever match FireFox!

    I don't know if you all guys have the same problem.

    I have a P4 2.4 Core2Duo, 4 GB Ram. When I fire FF for the first time, it take around 10 seconds or more to load where as IE loads instantly. Also, FF pulls lot of memory and from the past few days I have noticed that it has crashed many time.

    Besides, sometimes FF and other FF browser windows hangs for a few moments when a certainly application like gmail is signing in or signing out.

    Just won't get to the problem. Did any of you faced the same problem?

    The fox always wins in these threads yet IE8 is better.
