I use them both, but I am not a FireFox fanboy. I see definite problems with it.
The only reason FF took off is because of their 50c per download affiliate program. Even well known computer sites shilled for FF by writing entire articles on it and putting FF ads all over the page. Not to mention you'd go to blogs and they'd pretty much say you were uncool if you still used IE... oh, and click that banner right over there.
For webmasters FF is a very dumb browser. IE has a way of just knowing what the webmaster was trying to do. If your code isn't exactly to W3C standards, it probably won't work in FF.
FF's security is overrated. It almost certainly has many more holes than IE does. When FF releases security updates, everyone is very quiet. When IE releases them, people scream bloody murder.
And those FF plugins that everyone likes so well? They can contain malicious code. WebMonkey for instance has had problems with webmaster scammers uploading scripts that change affiliate codes to their own.
