Default Internet Explorer Vs Firefox

I thought I would kick off my first post with this I only just downloaded firefox and i love it, my vote goes to firefox and i will never go back! I mainly like it because it has tabbed browsing, its fast, includes spell checking, you can add extra plugins & extensions! if you use firefox already, upgrade to firefox 2 now, if you don't have it yet, download it FREE from: Firefox

Which do you prefer? please cast your vote & give your views...

Not only does Firefox have all those cool features, it is also more secure than IE!

I've been using the (free) IE-based Avant browser for the past 5 years or so, and never had a malware problem. It's always had tabs, and I've had over 30 open at a time with no loss of speed. You can disable java, active x, flash (no more dancing cowboys!), scripts, pictures, videos, block popups & ads from the menu. It has an RSS feed option, also an autofil, a language translator, resizer, and will work with a proxy.

A long time ago I used Firefox, but had some java problems & moved on.

No none of the above/other option in the poll?

I really flock is the new social browser. It is built just like firefox but has some extra features that make it a giant social browser.
