In case you haven't seen Mozilla's new advertisements and AT's new announcements Firefox turned 1.0 tday...(hey, Firefox is doing pretty good, wow, Bill Gates must be "a little" worried) and it continues to eat at Microsoft's browser share...hmm...so if this was your company and you were intelligent.....Bill Gates intelligent, what would you do to help your internet browser (IE) stay alive? ;)

today? you're off by 2 days

I use it as my primary browser, but it doesn't work with some things. When I contact companies that it doesn't work with I generally get the "Too Bad" response.

bill gates can pay people to chew his food for him. why the hell would he be hacking firefox when he has an entire company to do that crap for him?

Actually some at Microsoft use Maxthon Browser including the security chief.

I would say that Maxthon is much better out of the box, no extensions and addons to download unless you want them, much easier for noobs to figure out.

Despite the hype, Firefox and Maxthon both browse the web just fine. Maxthon however is compliant with IE since it's just a front-end and renders pages properly that firefox would screw up.
