what planet you from?

I always have had much quicker response with firefox....what are your system specs and connection speed?

also less spyware with firefox...

2.2ghz P4, 512mb, 80gb and 1.5ghz P4, 448mb, ~280+gb, IE is way faster on both computers. Spyware still gets through with FireFox, so I just keep my anti-spyware and virus programs up to day and don't go to shady web sites and I keep problems rare.

I could never use IE... it has so much spyware. Everytime I opened the program up... 2-3 popups would automatically come up.

Posted by: 91RS

No, that means your computer is full of spyware and I suggest downloading a good anti-spyware scanner (MS's is good and Ad-Aware). If it's so bad that pop ups are triggered when IE is opened it may already be to far gone and need a Windows reinstall.

Posted by: Rick Sample

Yep I could do that... but on almost every PC I use that has IE... I get popups upon launching.

FF for the win !

Posted by: bullitt5177

I have a couple pop up blockers and never get pop ups. It's kinda annoying actually, because when I click on something with a new window, usually it'll be blocked. But I just shut it off temporarily, and it's good.

Safari all the way

Posted by: Rick Sample

Posted by: 91RS

Safari is the browser that comes with Mac OS.

Yep alot of people don't really know anything about spyware or malware... which is why they have it. I have spyware... I just never get the chance to run any programs to get it out of my system, although I should. The thing I like best with firefox is that when I go to someones house who has this... I get no popups or anything remotely simmilar.

Thanks for clearing that up

I voted for IE only because it's what I have but I don't use it. Right now we have MSN as our ISP and they have their own browser which is pretty darn good. I got to use FF for the first time at my moms and I could tell it was faster than her IE. Didn't see much of a difference between the two other than that.
