Personally, I prefer IE6.  Not too sure why; probably a loyalty thing.  I've never been a big fan of Firefox, but now that I've gotten more used to it, it's growing on me.  And I certainly like the add-ons.  I'm still not completely sold, though.  I'm just stubborn, I guess.

I know, I know, this totally goes against your hundreds of "Use Firefox" posts.

    I have the same problem as CBMatt I don't seem to like firefox.
    I have no reason but its just something inside that doesn't like it.µ
    Maybe I just need to get used to it I will give it an other chance.
    But May I ask whats better in firefox than IE7.
    The layout definitely NOT but that's my opinion.
    (modified with beter spelling  ;D)

    Neither is your spelling.

    IE7.0 copied a lot of things from Firefox. If it wasn't for Firefox users IE users would still be stuck with the *censored* excuse of a 6.0. They would have dragged its life span on and on (6.1, 6.2..)  because no one would have had anything to compare it with. (No, a browser (Opera) with banners and advertisements won't get anyone their blood running thank you very much )

    First time I saw IE7 at my friends house, I realised how crap it looked compare to firefox and the first thing I thought was "The layout/theme sucks and they copied the Tabs"
    But these are only my opinions.

      I find that the Layout of firefox sucks but some-one said something about editing that.
      Is this possible?

        Yesterday I've read in the paper that there was a new kind of virus called bots.
        Those bots infects your computer when your surfing and clicking an infected web page.
        Does some-one knows if this is true and if FireFox or IE7 is better protected against those viruses.

        No, they're both evil. Stay off the Internet and do yourself a favour.

          Stay off the internet ?!  :o :-\
          That isn't a solution for me.  ;D
          But I want to thanks all of you to advice me to use FireFox.
          I installed it and learned to work with it and now I really think that it is the BEST internet browser you can modify allot.

          And perhaps even uninstall SP2, right?  Heh.

            What I did noticed is that FireFox works slower than IE.
            And is it possible that when you open a new tap that it automatically opens your homepage?
            I searched but didn't found that possibility while I can do this in IE.

            Google for a Firefox tweak guide, there are loads of ways to speed up Firefox and optimize it for any connection and system.
            As for opening your homepage with a new tab, try this extension.
            An extension is available for anything you could want from FF, if you look hard enough.

              I didn't look for addons for opening your homepage with a new tab.
              I thought it was a build in option apperantly not.
              If it is normal that IE is faster than I think FireFox sould do something about it next update.
              Sow I'll just wait for that  ::). I hope they do.
