Firefox is an open source web browser, it's free and
doesn't entwine itself into the brain of your pc like an alien leech. It's had a lot of the features just introduced in dIE7 for years, is more stable, is infinitely less prone to hack attacks and all round a damn site better that Micro$hite's finest.
Some sites don't work quite right with it but they are getting less and less. Firefox adheres to all the all the web standards fully. dIE does not. Lazy web developers only test their site with dIE and so don't find where their code doesn't meet the standards. Sleazyboard is one example of a site thats a bit different in dIE and Firefox. As the popularity of Firefox and other non M$ browsers increases this will continue to be a decreasing problem. I have no problem at all using ebay from firefox. Also the web development tools that are available now are a lot better at checking for bad code than they used to be (apart from the one written by MicroSloth of course).
Firefox is in
the press a bit at the moment because they've released a major new version just days after Mickey$oft caught up with the old one. Some people are amused by this. Do you think I'm one?
