What do you like about it milo? I tried it but wasn't overly impressed. I think firefox with extensions is still the most user friendly and has the most features.

Eh... Microsoft really cleaned the problems up. FireFox is still better for file downloads. But I also got tired of some codes not popping up in FireFox. For instance, on PJ's, some of the things you can buy for your name. IE can display any piece of code I've come across. So that's nice. Plus, as far as safe browsing, I know that comparing the two browsers one on one, FireFox is much safer. But I've got enough firewall protection to make it redundant anyhow. So my computer does fine.

"The truth is I think Microsoft is very directly responsible for spyware and adware and the pop-up ads in general that proliferated across the Web after they abandoned their product. I mean, this is the world's most-used software application ever ... and I just think it's irresponsible for a company to abandon it simply because they can't find a financial incentive to continue development on it.

People ask me, "Well, gee, if IE7 is starting to catch up to Firefox, and if they've got their hand back in development right now, and eventually they might actually catch up to Firefox in terms of features, what's the benefit of using Firefox? Why are you guys still around if you say that your only goal is just to make the Web a better place?"

My answer to that is, how much can you really trust a company that five years ago completely left you abandoned? If they do, in fact, succeed in taking back some of the market share that Firefox has gotten back from them, who's to say that they're not going to disappear again? My issue is not so much at a product level; it's at a company level. How do you trust a company that left everyone out in the cold for five years?"

FF at home and forced to use IE at work.

I don't think IE will ever truly catch up because M$ has to develop everything. Open source creates so many new opportunities that M$ can only copy, not pioneer.
