    I'v used firefox for a long time with no problems. Yes it's more secure then ie, any day!

    Sharp AL27, Athlon 64 2700+ 60Gb hdd, 512Mb mem, 64Mb vid, superbright lcd. DVD +-/RW. Great choice for business use.

    I mainly use FF but sometimes you have to use IE due to sites only supporting it, this mainly is the case with Microsoft websites, but I've run into a few others as well
