Firefox

[Hampshire Hog]

What is the pro's and cons of using a Firefox browser. Should I download it or not?

:bashpc:

:jive:

YES! YES! YES!

I have been using it for a long time now and I have never had any problems. When I ran Internet Explorer I had nothing but trouble and security vulnerabilities. Read a few reviews and to help you make up your mind have have a look at the following:-

or

http://reviews.cnet.com/Mozilla_Firefox/...280-2.html)

You will see that it's becoming the most popular browser by choice (as opposed to IE which comes as part of Windoze.) IE is working on their version 7 which will then have many of the features already included with Mozilla Firefox. The Email Client "Thunderbird" comes as a separate program and is far more secure than Outlook Express. In addition you could also download "Sunbird" giving you the equivalent of MS Outlook PIM functionality. This is if you choose to use all the elements of the Mozilla family of programs.

Good luck
