Once you have tried firefox you will be angry at microsoft for all of the choices that were taken away from you while you used ie.These people who say otherwise behave as though they work for microsoft.Among the people that I know (we all use firefox) it is not a matter of preference its a matter of fact.Explorer takes you where it feels like going-to install more updates,or maybe to install some software like mediaplayer,or perhaps nowhere at all.Firefox will bring the internet to you.

In association with Intel
Why do so many (virtually all) software packages think that they are so important that they have to be started automatically every time the computer boots? What is the largest number of "speed access", "update check", "camera download" and whatever other background programs you have ever seen running? Of those, how many did you really need?
