I originally tried out Firefox, as I was informed it was more secure than IE.

They could have made IE equally secure the next day, and I wouldn't have gone back. The tabs got me hooked, and I've since found a few plug-ins that make a switch back even less likely.

Firefox would pretty much need to fall apart on the security side for IE to have any chance of winning me over.
