I like firefox a lot, because it never freezes like my IE,

but the problem is that my firefox always take a long time start up, i click the shortcut and it takes like3-4 secs to pop the window, i find that extremly annoying but i still use it, and i love the built in pop-up blocker ,

but thats why i use IE, even though it freezes, i find it to be fast, and i like fast stuff so i use this lol , dont get me wrong though, i like firefox a lot

oh... ok... oh yeah, I forgot about the tabbed feature... that's one of the features I really like. doesn't clutter up the taskbar...
tabbed browsing is one of the main features of mozilla browsers (ie firefox) and it doesn't put anything on the taskbar... it uses an extra toolbar in the window though.

I like FireFox. I stopped using IE when people kept hacking into it and adding toolbars to the bar. It's such an annoying thing to go through.

SBC Yahoo! DSL's browser is pretty nice too. You get all your Yahoo! shortcuts on it.

You can get rid of all IE toolbars by going to Internet Options > Advanced > uncheck 'Enable third-party browser extensions'

I just figured out another cool feature on Firefox - something everyone else probably already knows. You can just start typing into the web page and the similar text will be highlited in green. for example, you click on a blank part of the page, type a few words you're trying to look for within the page, and as you type, the matches turn green... I was wondering why the text would sometimes be highlit. I thought it was a bug. haha....
