Firefox - Highly recommended browser

Firefox

Freeware

More than 46 million downloads (and growing fast daily) lots of people are currently using firefox
as their main internet browser and for good reasons.

Firefox is the fastest browser available. Even the most complex webpages on dial-up load lightning fast. And it is totally free! No banner ads, nothing. It is fully customisable, and configurable to the individual user. You can configure Firefox to run as you wish, with just the right amount of features you wish, which makes this program truly individual. So I wouldn't pass this one by. Some pages may not cause the browser to work properly, but that has to do with Microsoft-specific programming. As more people break away from IE, more webpages will definately start developing Mozilla compliant programming. The browser has a very clean, and lean interface, which maximizes the browsing window. The more advanced user may want to check out the extensions which can be added to it to provide some more useful functions.

Also Supports FULL range of W3C internet standards (including XHTML, which IE ignores)

Doesn't allow stealth ActiveX installs which is one of the main causes of security problems for IE users

Tabbed browsing- its like when you first used the internet, once you get used to it you'll wonder how you ever managed without it

RSS support- if you're stuck with IE, you need a separate program to read RSS feeds, but Firefox handles them as a BOOKMARK- you just click and it drops down a list of recent stories in that feed

Firefox is a highly popular browser due to its ease of use and better security than internet explorer against spyware, etc. highly customizable and highly recommended! and free!
