Do you use firefox?

Yes or no?

Why do you use it?

Should I switch?

Yes, I do.

With some tweaking and the memory-leak fix it's much better than IE.

Most tweaks can even be found on GFY

The only real reason I prefer it to IE is the tabbed browsing, although it does seem to be a bit faster.

I love Firefox. I don't see the big red X for broken images, tabbed browsing, not as susceptible (sp) to virii.

To Firefox users, does www.mlb.com get fucked up for you? The navagation is always all over the place and I have to refresh 10 times usually.

I use it almost full time. It is a little slower, but It stops the pop ups' better, and stops with the autodownloads of virus and spyware.

I use Firefox.

The tabs are handy, no different browsers open anymore.
No popups/exits.
No toolbars/active x hassles.
