No spyware
No adware
No malware
None of the crap ending in "ware" that you don't want and can think of.
No popups
Easy to customize, has different themes so you can give your browser the look you want.
There's even an FTP extension on it.
Those guys have been thinking of everything.
It's also slightly faster for browsing and the Homeland Security Department has said that Mozilla based browser (such as Firefox) are safer.
It's free and I'd recommend that anyone who hasn't tried it just test it out.
The one argument against it, if there where one is that it takes more ram. But it's nothing that will kill a decent machine.SIG TOO BIG!

Good rundown on why Firefox is better. But you forgot, in my opinion one of the biggest reasons it's better: extensions. You can install, even write, extensions that do practically anything which makes Firefox 100% customizable. Firefox all the way!!!Originally posted by Mike Okitch

Just downloaded it. I used to use it when it was called MyIE2, but have since switched to Firefox. Maybe I'll start using Maxthon again though; I really do like it.Originally posted by rml1608

I use mozilla 90% of the time. There is the odd site it doesn't agree with and I am forced to pull out IE but only when necessary.Comment

I'm not tlaking about system crash, I'm talking about Firefox crashing every ten nimutes. If you use your browser 7 hours a day to surf GFY you'll have no problems at all with Firefox, but when you use it to get some work done (opening 20 tabs at the same time, changing options when a page loads etc), you my friend are for big surprise. Do yourself a favour, download K-Meleon, and then we'll talk again.Last edited by Antonio; 11-24-2004, 06:05 PM.Comment

I don't surf all day on GFY and I am a tab whore. Usual setup: 6 Firefox windows, each with around 5 tabs. Sometimes upto 40 tabs when I'm going through pics using Linky extension (http://linky.mozdev.org/)I'm talking about Firefox crashing every ten nimutes. If you use your browser 7 hours a day to surf GFY you'll have no problems at all with Firefox, but when you use it to get some work done (opening 20 tabs at the same time, changing options when a page loads etc),
I've used K-Meleon before, but it is a pretty much dead project. Last official release (v0.8.2) was in 2003!you my friend are for big surprise. Do yourself a favour, download K-Meleon, and then we'll talk again.Comment

I have used Firefox for some pretty heavy duty work. I even once took it for a spin and opened 100 tabs at the same time. ONE HUNDRED, changing options and whatnot!! And I haven't had any hiccups.Originally posted by Antonio

url's in the address bar, load the pages etc. I run the scripts for 12 hours straight, and Firefox crashes at least 5 times more often than K-Meleon. I guess it all depends on what you're using your browser for. I'll test Maxthon tomorrow and see how it compares
