When firefox can loads images faster than molasses in January maybe I'll consider switching. Funny how when MS comes out with something the haters still hate and bitch. Before it was "Firefox blocks pop-ups", now IE blocls pop-ups. Then it was "FireFox blocks spyware". Now IE does too. Still the haters whine. Sometimes I think people bitch just to bitch by the way
Firefox phishing vulnerability discovered
A vulnerability in Firefox could make users of the open source browser more likely to fall for phishing scams.
The flaw in Mozilla Firefox 1.0, details of which were published by Secunia on Tuesday, allows malicious hackers to spoof the URL in the download dialog box which pops up when a Firefox user tries to download an item from a Web site. This flaw is caused by the dialog box incorrectly displaying long sub-domains and paths, which can be exploited to conceal the actual source of the download.............

I'm not bitching at all about I.E but my preferance now is Firefox.I have been using I.E for years and was just tired of all the spyware and bullshit.
As far as vulnerabilities go.I.E has had way too many for anybody to feel secure and more and more people are switching because of it.
Adaware,spybot s&d,hijack this etc etc aren't sufficient enough anymore.
