Mozilla Firefox: It is Microsoft vs. Online community

Have been using FireFox for over a year, both on the Mac, Linux and Windows. Excellent. Small, compact and far higher quality than Microsoft's Internet Apology 6.

Nowadays, when I stumble across a site which doesn't render correctly in Firefox (or Apple's equally excellent KHTML-based Safari browser) then I immediately do two things:

1) mail the site's administrator to bring the lack of standards-compliance to his/her attention.

2) make a mental note never to visit the site again.

You can do more than just use FireFox: Get your friends to use it too, and don't let IE-only sites get away with it - let them know how you feel!!!

Excellent piece of software

I've been using firefox since it was phoenix and it gets better all the time! Imagine, a browser that gets improvements instead of years of stagnation! For those nasty Internet Exploder-only websites, download User Agent Switcher from Mozilla.org...it makes your browser 'look' like it's IE (or Netscape or Opera) and stubborn pages will often display.

I've been using Mozilla/Firefox on my home PCs over two years now. I helped a friend of mine cleanup his PC of Adware and viruses and in the process installed Firefox. A couple days later he called me up _specifically_ to thank me for installing Firefox for him.

I use IE6 at work, and the more I use it, the more primitive it seems. No native pop-up blocker, no tabbed browsing, I can't even find out how to zoom in or out on a page - all 3 features have been in Opera for years, and in every version of Mozilla I've used. I really hope Firefox will bring modern browsing to the masses.

I love Firefox and I use at work and home. There is no way I going back to use the buggy IE.

Can I just say - Firefox plus Adblock!! Go to adblock.mozdev.org, and reach for a much quieter saner browsing life.

Also on November 9th we get the next Microsoft security bulletin.

The extendability makes this browser the number 1. And yes: I recognize using IE and discovering a pile of popups.

I have been using FireFox since last one month and I have been telling my friends and collegues to use FireFox and DROP ie. :)

Firefox and Thunderbird will lead the Windows users over to Linux and away from the shoddy workmanship that makes up most Microsoft products. Today, I just converted another hardline Windows user over to Mandrake Linux after enduring an infected computer that tools could not fix. Bill Gates, please move onto stealing and cheating in some other field and country.

I didn't realize all the different browsers available until I switched to Linux. I used Konqueror for a long time, but then I tried FireFox and I love it. Now it's my browser of choice under Windows, Linux, and Mac. I'd like to thank Sun for Java and Mozilla for FireFox, and all the developers that spent endless hours to make it all possible.

Never used IE, only Netscape, mozilla & Firefox from its day as Phoenix to Firebird to Firefox. It has been a rapid progress. Another good software Thunderbird a mail client to compliment Firefox and good bye to that stupid outlook and outlook express, free of all virus in the e-mail

firefox will be taking 5 % of the browser market share from six months after the launch of firefox 1.0 on november 9 and the firefox browser is going make microsoft to run for its browser share afer six months with thier bloody security updates and new features

Today a co-worker asked me to check a website, because his Antivirus triggered there. I opened it with Firefox. Nothing. Then I openend it with IE. No virus, but at least 9 windows opened. I have been using Firefox since it was named Phoenix, and almost forgot how they are called: pop ups.

The extensions are great. I can access my .mac calander from anywhere using the mozilla calendar 0.8+ extension or other Ical's . And the McSearchpreview enhances google, A9, MSN, Yahoo to memtion a few.

Firefox rox. The theming, extensions, speed, security, pop up blockers and autoupdates are the best I've seen.

I use Firefox even though sometimes i have to switch to IE to view some pages. That is the downside, but on the upside, i get less spyware, the find feature is better, it has a built in pop-up blocker, i have installed many search engines, foe example IMDB,Amazon, and Dictonary.com. Its very convenient.

found Firefox at a friends place in Germany last year,I liked it and now all my friends in the USA are using it too.
Never used IE only Netscape.

Firefox is amazing! It has an elegant interface, lightening fast load times, renders page as well as, if not better than, MSIE. I've also switched to Thunderbird, an email client developed by the same project. Using Firefox, Thunderbird, and Clamwin (OpenSource Virus Protection) I'm managed to keep my PC free spyware and viruses for months.

Been using Firefox for about 6 weeks now and I'm very impressed. Far more intuitive and customizable than IE (extensions are fantastic). Looking forward to when Firefox is given more industry support on web sites, increasing its compatibility.

Bye Bye IE. Bill Gates has enough money. This browser is the best. Customizable with different themes. Just too cool.

The best thing is, Firefox GREATLY reduces your risk of getting infected by spyware. Unlike Explorer, it doesn't have as many security holes that let spyware come in. I work at a PC repair shop and we get more work because of spyware than anything else -- trust me, Anti-virus programs DO NOT PROTECT YOU FROM SPYWARE. Firefox looks nicer, blocks popups, and runs faster. It takes about 15 minutes to download on dial-up, you can download it at www.mozilla.org

Been using Firefox since it was Firebird...around v. o.3 I think. It just keeps getting better. The other day I had to use Internet Exploiter on someone else's machine, and I was appalled at the amount of popups and how slo-o-o-ow it was. "Take Back The Web".

Have used Mozilla firefox virtually since its inception. I love it. It rocks and there is no way I'm going back to IE, or PU as I call it.

Used it for 40 days, uninstalled IE. Firefox works, it's fast, it's free, no pop-ups, no security problems and no patches required. That's how it should be.

in my opinion, firefox it's a much better browser than microsoft internet explorer.

I hope people will see that Firefox is more than just tabbed browsing. Being a web designer, Firefox's ability to render web standards compliant elements is just great.

I have been using firefox for a month now..its one of the best tings that happened to the web browser in a long long time.Speed is fast.it uses ess resources, tabbed browsing is awesome...some ppl have complained that there are some display issues..i have never seen any..everyone download this browser...

Firefox's fluidity and speed has brought the fun back ! And no annoying IE pop-ups. Hurray ! Nice work guy
