This is something I found in the news about how FireFox is going to dominate Microsoft's Internet Explorer.

The url to this news site has been deleted for some odd reason... sorry about that for the people that might have wanted to read the article and see for themselves...

Interesting.
Internet Explorer will never win, because it's made by Microsoft, and Internet Explorer doesn't have many features.

I actually think that Internet Explorer is fast than Firefox, but I don't get any popups when using FF and I do with IE.

I use Safari myself, but I can attest that Firefox > Explorer (massively)

I really don't care much about the fight with FireFox and Internet Explorer. I use FF because I like that tabs and the different skins you can give it, IE looks too boring. I don't want FireFox to get too big though.

Main reason I use it is for the lack of popups, bookmark bar, tabbed browser, and a FREAKING FOX HUMPING EARTH!! I mean, how cool is that?

FireFox is exactly the same as Internet Explorer. For the Tabs, I just installed that for the Internet Explorer. Everything is the same, even popup blockers, etc.

No DIFFERENCE!

From my experience, it seems FireFox generally browses faster than Internet Explorer, especially with multiple pages open at the same time.

My IE has Tabs, because I installed it.

To me, Internet Explorer loads exactly the same as Firefox.

Firefox is a lot prettier to look at...
It's more customizable, and I think it's a little easier to understand for people who don't know computer speak :\

The Skin for IE is only customizable if your computer uses Windows Blind or a different Skin.

Haha...isn't there a website asking for people to promote IE like there is one for firefox?

Personally, I like the little add ons that firefox offers. dA is a dark grey/black to me, while the rest of the world see it as light gray. Hmm...I might go change it to pink.

Not to mention that on dAmn! whenever someone tries to talk to me the tab flashes.

I also found it very useful when I was looking up college information. Each window was a different college, and each window at three or four tabs. It kepts everything nice.

I've seen statistics somewhere, and IE steadily went down while FireFox steadily went up. Why go to the trouble to install tabs anyways? IE is like Borland's C compiler...

Firefox is just better than IE. Why should you install tabs? Firefox looks better and doesn't have popups. Install a popup blocker? why do that when you can get firefox. Besides all that firefox is just faster.

I have tried using Internet Explorer for the longest time and they don't have any nice things in that. Then I moved to Opera. I think that Opera is the best one, but that is only my opinion. Then I just got done trying FireFox and Mozilla and I did not like that at all. So now I am sticking with Opera.

I'm a dial-up user, and firefox browsers 5x faster then internet explorer. Internet exploder uses more memory and well, sucks.

Haven't you played with MrrLL on Starcraft before? He occasionally lags out or lags so much that you can't drop him from the game.

Oh and where did you get the installation of IE tabs? I never knew they existed.

While IE, is a little bit faster than FireFox... It is nowhere near as good as it.

FF owns IE until the earth freezes over, and SeNv5 will be released! wink.gif


But seriously, FireFox owns.

I think Fire Fox is faster than Internet Explorer, that might just be my opinion though.
I hear a lot of different things from different people.

I use firefox because my internet explorer is infested with popups.
That, and that most other people I know are using it as well.
