    Read this article on yahoo about IE having some flaw that could give up your passwords to hackers. I changed to Firefox. Better to be safe than sorry. Check out the link below for the blog.

    To that Poor Move I submit this article:

    Firefox tops list of 12 most vulnerable apps | Zero Day | ZDNet.com

    Sorry...looks like you lose...maybe going back to I.E. is a better Idea.

    Almost every piece of software is going to have bugs and vulnerabilities. You want to be safe from the baddies on the internet? Reach around to the back of your computer and unplug the RJ45 connector...

    I use FF only because of it's seemingly unlimited amount of customizations...

    IE is blocked entirely by my firewall anyway...
    The GPs are long gone...

    The difference is Mozilla will fix the flaws as soon as they show. IE is a flaw because of how closely tied it is to the rest of the OS.

    I've never had a problem with either *knocks on wood* but I feel that FF is better for the average user
