It's a good browser, but I prefer to stay with Opera.

I live with my parents, and my dad only has IE on his computer (which I use often). But whenever possible, (at the library, at college etc.) I use Firefox.

I really like Mozilla Firefox because it keeps away popups and stuff. I also use Opera, which runs a little faster than Firefox on my computer, since there's tons of stuff on it (it's the family's computer), and some people at my house still like using Internet Explorer. I don't like Internet Explorer because it's basically guaranteed that you'll get some form of virus. Anyways, I like using Firefox but it runs slower on my computer.

We have a very restrictive IT policy at work which assumes that the fawning staff will always access the net via IE. Unfortunately it is so restrictive that it stops us from doing our work.

So we run Mozilla Firefox in parallel, and it works very well.

Our IT policy nazis wouldn't let us install firefox at work, so I use IE there. Just starting to use Firefox at home now, seems to work okay, just a matter of getting used to it.

I use IE with a really good firewall, for streaming music while I work online, and I use Mozilla for surfing the web at the same time. Works great!
