You make Firefox seem overrated and like it's so perfect. I havn't found anything i like about Firefox. I still think Internet Explorer is better.

Well firefox holds better to web standards, which is great for any webdesigner. Basically, if your design works in FF it *should* work with any browser.
It was one of the first slim browsers to offer tabbed browsing (opera has a massive footprint). It's totally free, open source, has a nice plug-in system, and has an excellent pop-up blocker (much better than IE's).
I like it and i heard it is very safe, but i got a virus the second day with it. :)
lol, a web browser isn't anti-virus. If you download a virus it's your own fault.Quote:

As 43 said FF is much, much better for web designing and graphics. For instance FF can display transparent .PNG images (PNG has the quality of a JPEG but has transparency capabilities) where as IE can only display transparencys if it is a .GIF image (has transparency capabilities but crap quality).
Also FF has generally more features than IE and is a more reliable browser.
- Security
- Customizable
- Tabs
- Speed
- Plugins
- Ease of use.
Well explained Rob.
Although IE is usally faster xD
i didnt download anything i just clicked on some **cough cough** pictures on google images and BAM!
there's new version of internet e comin' your way tho......
FF does not sall all the time like my IE did...
I don't think Firefox is bad, but I use IE. I don't really use the tabbed browsing often, and I don't get popups using IE so I just never bothered I guess.
Tabbing is really handy once you get into it. Not to mention the customizable bars in FF are fun. I have 'PimpZilla' skins on right now. Blingin'
i have pimpzilla too! Also, tabs are the best invention ever...i use them all the time, especially for moderating. Makes it so easy just to open all the links up.
Personally, i think opera is a great browser. It's free to download at www.opera.com
FF just over runs opera. ;)
