Firefox or Internet Explorer?

First topic message reminder :

Do you have Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer?
I have Mozilla Firefox and find it much faster and easier than Internet Explorer.

why would anybody want to messing around with things i think that abit lame i got better things to do then mess around with internet explorer or firefox

i never have a problem with viewing site with internet explorer.

why would anybody care about themes for i'm not really bother who stole what from where, i go by how the typeing looks like and to me internet explorer 7 wins

u can change fonts and everthing in firefox
faster
safer
more fun addons
less cpu usage

and firefox wins user reviews every firefox vs internet explorer fight ive seen and i see alot of them

firefox is better thats it

How do you get themes for both and have them pop up on one diffrent and the other diffrent!

True. I use Nod32

Thats good!But i use a mac so i need neither!

norton anti virus is a very bad anti virus and im not talking about antivirus programs firefox has more security built in and even scans everything you download for viruses in 3.0 version

thats why I use it!

well i been using internet explorer since i started using the internet i haven't had problem with i haven't had virus, trogan or anything like that so i'm very happy with internet explorer.

and internet explorer rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

internet explorer=

internet explorer=

internet explorer keeps you happy for while you are using it but once you do a virus scan and you see how much viruses you actually got you turn to fire fox which is basically virus free

Another thing Firefox has, and IE doesn't : Many add-ons

You can add many add-ons to Firefox, in order to fit your needs. For example, you have add-ons to block ads and scripts (when you are fed up of ads) such as Ad-block and Noscript. For web developers, you have an addon who add you a web developer toolbar where you can have many tools who helps you in your Web development (CSS, validation, accessibility, etc.), and you have another addon who allows you to open a page with IE browser under a Firefox tab.

For more add-ons, you can go to Mozilla's addons page.

And finally : When a Web page has font sizes formatted in fixed sizes (px) and you find them too small, IE doesn't zoom them while FF zooms them, and FF even gives you the choice of setting a minimal font size ! That's what I hated in IE, especially when you aren't at your computer and the resolution is set to max (very small fonts).

i had internet explorer for 6 and half years and never had a virus like i said before i am good on computer and it look like most people on here are rubbish on computers that why you get so many virus on your computers.

maybe you dont have virus cus you dont watch and download as much porn?

I feel really confused
I have IE6 I was too scaredy cat even to go up to seven. I have used Norton ever since I had the internet, because it was the only one I had heard about.
I have never had a virus, though had a few warnings that there had been attacks that had been dealt with by Norton, trogons and worms, no idea what they are, but they were stopped anyway.
I have clicked on a few dodgy sites, purely through being naive about the net. I now have a thing that warns me about sites on a browser page before I click them.
My Norton is due to run out in August. I may see what else is available if you all reckon Norton is no good.
Have posted a new topic about spyware etc;

norton was good in the begining...............but now really it sucks
so is with IE6 or 7
I use both IE and FF
i dont know abt you guys but i didnt have any virus problems whether FF or IE
but you gotta agree that FF is way better than IE
@spook, all i see is you blame others that they cannot use computer like you,precisely that too shows how much backward u really are
keep yapping in the stone age..........which progresses at snail speed
Unfortunately IE eats ma patience,while surfing it really kills me

Full version and totally free, with regular updates.

IE is great, i have used various versions for around 4 years wth never a problem.

I downloaded firefox once on my brothers advice and found it annoying, slow to load pages and display pictures, thats if it actually did show them. I probably could have worked out why it was like that and sorted it on my pc..but frankly couldnt be bothered, went back to tried and trusted IE

i don't like FF to many bugs

I abandoned IE because I got many problems with it : two hijacks, viruses, spywares. And I'm not as noob as my father !
Since I abandoned IE, my number of viruses has sharply decreased, and I even don't catch anything anymore since I migrated from Windows to Linux.

More than one year ago, we had many complaints about Imageshack's ads on Forumotion's French support forum. If someone tried to view a pic on an Imageshack page with IE, he mostly got a virus or an annoying prompt from these ads ! So, needless to go to a porn website to catch these stuffs.

Another thing : Firefox and any browser using the Gecko backend to render Web pages (K-Meleon, Flock, Seamonkey, etc.) are much more respectful to the W3C standards than IE. And they're all opensource.
In Newbies Paradise's XHTML/CSS tutorials, it is advised to build your Web pages according to these browsers, before thinking of making it IE-compatible.

I have internet explorer. Its OK to me.

I use both but have switched mainly to FireFox now since I have Ad Block Plue on it.

what sites do you go onto the get all these virus?? you must go on some right dodgy site to get virus

i have used internet explorer for over 6-7 years and never got a virus or spyware i cheak my computer 3 times week and my computer is always clean from these things

My opinion is, That Internet Explorer is much better than firefox.

And Internet Explorer Blocks millions of viruses for me.

With firefox i always had trouble plus, with firefox the graphics are bad.

Firefox is 100% Rubbish.


Notice: I have have a desktop that was made in 2002 and i used internet explorer the whole time and barely got viruses.

i have used FF and IE but i like Opera better it is just like FF except way quicker, no lag, more add ons, its just so much better.

I have IE on my laptop i have both IE n safri (itunes downloaded it) but i like IE i know what the buttons do lol

only ppl that wont face the fact that firefox is alot better

spook i dont rly get alot of viruses only when i used to use IE i got some virus that kept installing more viruses and taking me to sites on IE
then i open firefox dosent take me to any wierd sites randomly
