Absolutely. As long as you know how to keep your PC secure there is no reason that you can not run it. Firefox is to IE what AOL is to the web. For lazy "dummies".

I never had spyware problem even with IE 6. That's not a browser problem, that's a lack of anti-spyware problem.

Security isn't the only reason to run firefox, there's a million more. With that said, I use IE Tab for firefox sometimes. ;)

ive never had spyware or virus with IE

Its not only antivirus, but keeping windows up to date. A lot of people tend not to do that.
FIrefox has a lot of problems, especially memory leaks. WHenever my system would slow down, id always find that it was firefox was leaking memory again

As a web developer, I am using Firefox, because it has tons of nice extensions. And then testing my products in IE.

Yes I use IE.

Reason: I learned long ago never to remove yourself to far from your customers and potential customers. I want to see things, experience things, and understand things as a typical customer would.

Only in some very rare cases.Now is totaly unnesseary to use it beacuse you can use IE rendering engine in firefox if you encounter site which doesnt accept firefox.
