From what I have seen, TESTING Mozilla FireFox (at the recommendation of a
couple people on the list), this browser seems faster than IE. IT also has some
features IE lacks such as the TAB browsing. It also incorporates Anit-Pop up
and Under tools (HUGE benifit).
it also carries a lighter footprint than IE.
Just my .02..
