Firefox,because it's faster.Internet Explorer freezes too much.
by Anonymous X on June 17th, 2008
Internet explorer is great but recently I've switched over to Mozilla Firefox, I like it better. It has spell check built in to the browser and It has less bugs than I.E. I would recommend Firefox over Internet Explorer.

mozilla firefox. i have mine customized to the max! faster and more secure than MSIE

Explorer is garbage.
Firefox rocks especially with the upgrade today.
Explorer is utter nonsense and a dinosaur.
by unknown on June 17th, 2008
FireFox is better. IE is like licking your finger and turning the pages yourself. Ick.
by buxtonite ..slowly losing my mind on January 5th, 2008
I use IE ... firefox has only ever given me problems the 3 times I have tried to use it, so now I will stick to IE
by Atillion on January 5th, 2008
I like Firefox because they pioneered the features that users want that Microsoft is just now catching onto... (like tabbed browsing, complete cache management, etc)
by Seanzie is smiling again on November 17th, 2009
Safari... lol.

Mozilla Firefox
by MuslimYamaka on November 17th, 2009
Mozilla Firefox. Far less advertisements, the organization is non-profit (huge props, IMO), and easier to organize things like bookmarks, tabs, etc.
by ACCOUNT CLOSED on March 31st, 2009
From just those two, definately Firefox.
But I prefer Opera. It's technologically more advanced, and many of the add-ons that are available for Firefox are built-in to Opera. It's also usually faster, and very safe.
The only downside I can think of, is that some sites are not compatible with it - That's when I use Firefox.

Firefox for sure.
by Paul Rozhkov on June 17th, 2008
FireFox hands down.
by gmeades on June 17th, 2008
I was experiencing memory leak problems with IE 7 on AB. My memory usage would get up around 340MB or so, and response time would get pretty slow. After installing Firefox I've had no more memory leak problems. Memory usage stays around 25MB with multiple windows open, and response time is quicker.
by glamorgirli on January 5th, 2008
I like internet explorer personally, but I use foxfire for the spell check, if only IE could have spell check!!
by Zack on January 5th, 2008
I love Firefox, but why am I using Opera now?
by Kevisaurus is a Carnotaurus today on August 7th, 2007
Firefox has spell check and I can restore an old session if I suddenly log off and didn't log out of any pages I was in.
I can't say that about explorer: Hated it.
by GiraffeyedDonor-ish on November 17th, 2009
Firefox 2.0 (I don't really like the new one...)
by Reptar on November 17th, 2009
Firefox.

As a web developer I have to love Firefox.

I have both, but I can't see what all the rage is about with Firefox!
by Freedom00 on November 17th, 2009
Internet Explorer. I am more familiar with it.

safari... =]
by Thriftymaid on September 7th, 2009
Firefox 100000 percent
by ClearNone on March 31st, 2009
Firefox for sure.
I don't like how internet explorer is set up. It does not follow internet standards.
Firefox loads pages faster, is skinnable, has addons that provide extensive usability, and has better support.
Once you try Firefox there is no going back.
by Belle is excited... on June 25th, 2008
Firefox, hands down.
by ShiftxGT on June 17th, 2008
I agree with Omar. I love Fire Fox. I have not seen a single explorer that can beat it. When i try to use Internet explorer i always get some issue. No issues with FireFox so far (:

That is a video that shows why FireFox is so awesome!
by ritababy on June 17th, 2008
i dont think i ever used Firefox so im kinda partial to Explorer.
by jeanie16 on June 17th, 2008
i was going to say internet explorer, but reading the other comments, perhaps I ll try fiefox a bit more often !
by Blackfire on June 17th, 2008
Internet Explorer
i have no idea why i hate Firefox so much...
by OmarFW on June 17th, 2008
The new IE7 SUCKS. It's slow and hard to use.
Firefox is by far the best browser I have ever used. It loads pages faster, they've done the testing.
It's got tons of downloadable themes, awesome bookmarking, it's stable.
And Firefox 3 just came out.
by Penny The Wise on June 17th, 2008
Well, there's a reason they call it Internet Exploder or Internet Exploiter (and lots of others- feel free to post other ones as a comment if you can think of any). Firefox has spell check, doesn't load improperly and is just must better all around.
by Talimze on June 17th, 2008
Internet Explorer, because is doesn't suck.
by tin23uk on June 17th, 2008
firefox is deffinatly better but i always find myself using IE out of habit.
by Da Azian Boi on June 17th, 2008
Firefox all the way! IE is horrible.
by Someguy on June 17th, 2008
Unless the website demands it, I surf exclusively with Firefox.
by Sweet T on June 17th, 2008
Firefox, but for some reason I cant save files, with it, right now.
by Ec-nal Licensed Bootie Inspector on June 17th, 2008
IE yo...
by Rescuer Treesaw on April 17th, 2008
Firefox, I love the add-ons
by Anon y mouse on April 1st, 2008
Internet Explorer.
by DillaDolla26 on April 1st, 2008
Firefox by far. Firefox is a more secure browser , has better plug-ins and add ons, it crashes less, and best of all it is not made by microsoft!
by Magnetosphere on January 13th, 2008
I like the Firefox feature where if the browser crashes or your computer freezes up while you are surfing, then once Firefox is reopened, or your computer is booted up again and then Firefox is reopened, then Firefox automatically displays all of the websites you had open when the problem arose.
Is there that option in Explorer? I haven't seen it.
by HrrdGrrl on January 12th, 2008
Firefox all the way!! IE is shoved down our throats, it's leaky, it completely takes over your pc, lays a HUGE claim on your CPU and memory. I don't particularly like that business philosophy.
When I buy a car, then too, I'd like to be given options for my car stereo, lots of them ....
Of course, for those that lake the moral fiber to choose, IE is the perfect choice. It will gently steer you towards more and more scamsites, eager to squeeze your credit card dry.
Firefox OTOH, lets YOU decide
by Zebulon on January 10th, 2008
Firefox is faster and it looks prettier.
Plus, opening new tabs is so much easier than opening new windows.
by CarcinomaAngel on January 5th, 2008
I use Firefox for most thing. Internet Explorer is reserved to watch Netflix instant "watch online" movies (it doesn't work with Firefox or I would use that.)
by Da Azian Boi on January 5th, 2008
Firefox because it is so much better than IE. However, I do like the format of IE7, and thats the magic of Firefox themes.
by james on January 5th, 2008
internet explorer personaly i just never really tried firefox so i dont really have a fair opinion
by AnonymousGirl on January 5th, 2008
Firefox.. just because.
by Anonymous on January 5th, 2008
I am using both actually. Firefox works better on this site.
