I just read about this new browser in Wired magazine. From what I've read its less prone to spyware and trackers, etc., than Internet Explorer (aren't they all?).
Anyway, I downloaded it yesterday and it seems a tad faster, has about the same format as IE and it automatically downloads all your favorites, etc.
YUP. Been using it for over a year. Its awesome. I love the tabbed browsing. And yes, it less prone to spyware, and all that crap. Theres also ALOT ALOT ALOT less security holes than IE.
All I can say to those pitiful people who remain using browsers from Microsoft or Apple is GET WITH THE PROGRAM AND GET YOURSELF A REAL BROWSER. You in all likelihood don"™t know this, but Microsoft has outsourced development on Internet Explorer to a company in France. No, really. Would I tell a lie to you?
Been using it since it came out. It's a lot faster on my system, the caching seems to be much more intelligent, it doesn't build up a temporary internet folder measured in gigabites if you don't watch it, uses fewer resources, is much more stable, and isn't as porous as our southern border. Oh, and I almost NEVER get any pop-ups, and my spam amounts have dropped to almost nothing because of the added security and resistance to data miners and spyware. It occationally lets something through that I catch with AdAware, but not even close to as much as I got with IE.
i've been using it for over a year as well. I don't use IE much anymore as its a big juicy target for viruses and spyware.

I have been using it for a month now thanks to the advice of HNI Justin. Best move I have made with my computer. Internet Explorer doesn't belong in the same sentence with Firefox. Going to download Thunderbird email as well very soon.
Mozilla Firefox
