Dump Internet Explorer.....Switch to Firefox

I switched to Firefox from Internet Explorer and I highly recommend that you switch also. Here are some reasons why I ditched IE:
  • Firefox offers tabbed browsing which allows me to open several different webpages with one click. It's like an Excel workbook with several tabbed worksheets that you open at will.
  • Firefox's built-in pop up blocker.
  • Firefox is smaller and more stable than IE.
  • Firefox opens webpages much more quickly than IE.
  • Firefox provides a simple way to manage or dispose of cookies.
  • Firefox is immune to the plethora of cyber attacks that are aimed at IE.
  • Firefox 's built in RSS reader updates and delivers news and blogs in real time.

Since it obliterated Netscape, Microsoft has made no attempts to improve on the functionality of IE. Download a free copy of Firefox and enjoy friendlier and more secure websurfing now.
