[POLL] - Firefox is gaining ground, IE down to 89%

[SuperTool]

I use firefox at home and mozilla at work. Don't use IE much, and pretty much avoid all the sites that require it.

BTW, anytime I click on an XPI or drag it to install a component, it tells me it cannot download. Fvcking firefox. :|

theres a yahoo companion extension

I use IE. I have no reason whatsoever to switch. It runs quickly and smoothly and I have never suffered from any security issues.

I use Firefox.. and I had no problems with IE either, I simply just chose to use Firefox cuz of its features instead of IE thats just "good enough". Opera.. KMeleon are other good browsers too

I have never had spyware on my computer. I'm still confused as to why any experienced computer user would.

I also wonder why those in the busniess hate spyware. It's a huge cash cow. I started charging unrelated people 50-70 an hour for what I used to do for free as a favor. And I don't even work in IT.

agreed. i only use FF for tabbed browsing.. IE is just fine otherwise, if MS decided to add tabbe dbrowsing in the next version i would have no use for FF

Well, I like Adblock and Mouse Gestures, I also like Tabbed Browsing now.

If MS wants to add them to IE, I guess I would switch back, until then, bye bye IE.

 

[yhelothar]

IE
I have firefox installed though. I dislike tabbed browsing, and I like the simplicity of IE.

Every couple of weeks we have a thread like this. Let me sum it up for you.

MOST PEOPLE HERE USE FIREFOX, SOME USE IE AND A FEW USE OPERA. OK?!? OK

I still use IE. I've tried Firefox a few times and the main hurdle I've had to be able to use it is that I can't get the address bar background color to be white. I know it's a dumb reason to not switch but I'm very stubborn about things like that. I've grown accustomed to IE's appearance and outside of the address bar, I was able to make Firefox look enough like IE so that it was useable, but the address bar (and text box at Google, among other things) drove me crazy. If anyone knows how to fix that and can help me out, I'd give Firefox another try and maybe stick with it this time.

Edit: I dunno if I'll read this thread again... If you know and want to help me out, please PM me. Thanks.
