No question in my mind. IE is too buggy and prone to catching sumat, so
I'm told, plus on some pages there's too much extra stuff that wants to
load.
So for me its Firefox, yeah!

I tried firefox and it was ok but I prefer IE which I've had no trouble
with. Firefox had trouble displaying some pages and it also has a bug where
the page judders up and down.

I tried Firefox. It wasn't long before I started hitting pages that
wouldn't display properly. I didn't care for the way that bookmarking
works. You need IE for Windows Update anyway.
I'm well protected with ZoneAlarm firewall, SpywareBlaster, eTrust
(resident) and AntiVir anti-virus, AČ anti-trojan, Ad-Aware and
SpyBot.
I'll stay with IE.
Happy trails,

Strictly up to you. FF or Mozilla are more advanced and customizable than
I.E., which will remain on your system as a back up. Just don't use it -
except for MS-centric sites that will not display properly in other browsers.

Really, What competition is there????
IE is Crap. End of statement.
FireFox is much faster as the world knows and IE is bound to give som problem. (For those of you who have been lucky enough to not have this happen to them yet...good for you).
Firefox will have problems displaying the ODD page, but with its more recent versions...this is very rare.
The perfect browser for me however is master OPERA!
