I'm just curious how many people use IE or Firefox. If you prefer one or the other give why.
For me: Firefox
Firefox is malware free (unless you deliberately do something stupid), it keeps those annoying pop-ups partly out and I don't have to worry about ActiveX and other crap. Also with the hackers trying to get through the flaws of IE its liable to break down faster than Firefox. Also Firefox's tabbed browsing doesn't feel as much of a hassle as does it's IE counterpart. When I used tabs in IE 7 I felt like stabbing myself.
