FF is good. But if you use non-web email, get Mozilla Full.

Firefox has too many problems... better to use old Firebird than it in its current state.

Use something standards-compliant. So go Firefox.

I might also change my browser. Internet explorer is being too much buggy and unstable.
I have to tell you something everything I wrote above is a lie.

Firefox. Once you start using tabs you cannot go back.

Firefox.

IE still has that annoying bug where if it can't get all the data quickly it grinds to a halt. That problem has been there since the IE4 days.
