|  Enjoying Firefox!
I am a die hard IE fan inspite all the holes in the web browser. I have recently downloaded and installed Firefox from Mozilla and i really enjoy it. I have tried the others, Mozilla and Opera, and they just did not work for me. Firefox's tool bars dont take up alot of screen space and it is 100% free so i dont have to deal with an advertisement banner that you get with the free Opera.
Firefox is also fast and has tabbed browsing ability. So for those looking for an IE replacement that is 100% free, fast and streamlined, try out Firefox.  |

I'd suggest to any IE user RUN AWAY
Haven't tried firefox but would agree its FAR better than internet exploder that you need 10 add ons to get it up to date

The only thing I don't like about Firefox (and Mozilla later than 1.3) is that it doesn't display graphics automatically when you click on an attachment. Or is there a fix for this? |

Great Browser, light and fast, not to mention the fast hyperlink selection you type the beggining of the desired hyperlink and it will get you to that hyperlink no more mouse needed!!!!
I love this feature!!!!
Only think it needs improvement is in the sites that uses security sometimes it doesnt allows the brower to log into a accounts, example my company webmail service.... | |

well if you go into the preferences.. you can browse and select which application you want the graphic to open with.
I have selected image preview of XP.
when I click on an image, it opens right away.  | |
