FireFox Baby - DOWN WITH IE!
FireFox now lets me import saved passwords from Netscape, so I have officially made the switch from NS to firefox.. Looking good so far.. Sometimes NS would just start going crazy with ram and CPU so it wasn't good, but I've heard good things about FireFox so I made the switch.
If you are using IE for god's sake switch to Netscape, FireFox or some Mozilla browser, it is so much better and you never have to worry about exploits, worms, bla bla bla.

I had my Firefox homepage settings changed on me. We won't be safe for long.

Firefox is much smoother then NS . When you have 10-20 tabs opened in NS it uses a shitload of rap

You don't get anything out of it-- Not everyone in the world is greedy.

because there are a bunch of morons out there (roughly 99% of the internet population) who will click ANYTHING, and go ANYWHERE online, without keeping their shit updated, without protection, and are left dazed and confused (even more than usual) when someone tries to exploit their incompetence.

Me too.. Microsoft would really have to do something now for me to ever even consider switching back to IE.
