Firefox is more secure because all the hackers write viruses to attack IE, since it's more popular.  Every Tuesday Microsoft puts out new fixes for security exposures in IE.  If you don't put the fix on right away, the hackers are busy writing viruses to take advantage of that exposure that Microsoft just told everybody about.

personally i've never liked firefox it appears too have way to many glitches in it, try uninstalling it and installing something else IE or Netscape Navigator are both good in my opinoin

I would say Firefox, since it looks just like Explorer but with some extra features like "Tabbed Browsing" (which makes it alot quicker when switching back and forth between websites)  and it seems to prevent alot of spyware from getting in my computer.  Netscape is supposedly good too, but I never liked the feel of it.

Firefox is the best browser around at the moment. IE is very spyware ridden where as firefox is amazing against spyware.\n\nNot only that but prefer how firefox functions and what you can do with it, for example, dragging and dropping websites into a toolbar as shortcuts.

I personally started using Firefox just because it was the talk of the town & I have found it very nice. Its tab feature is good (although a bit overrated), but, putting that aside, it deals with the security problems very efficiently . When I was using IE as my web browser, I was so annoyed by frequent security threats & certain pop ups opening as new windows inspite of my Y! toolbars, but Firefox has made life so easier, it blocks every kind of annoying pop ups.\nNowadays whenever I try to use IE for a change, I am so annoyed by the pop ups & maximizing & minimizing browsers.\nSo I guess I am going to stick with Firefox no matter what.\nBut at the same time I think that this kind of tough competition will force microsoft to improve the security features of IE & in near future, you will be seeing a new & improved Internet Explorer which will force Firefox to die.....

Firefox 1.5.0.1.   Stay away from Internet Explorer -- it's full bugs (at least until the next version, 7, is released), and Microsoft doesn't adhere to standards, so it makes the Web a worse place.

Firefox.  It more user friendly, it goes much faster for me, and stops pop-ups and ads.  Besides, my IE just stopped working.  I hate IE!!  Long live Firefox!

Firefox is fast and tops. However some pages may not render ideally under FF. In these cases you will have to use Internet  Explorer at times. The IE plugin for FF is a bit buggy as well.. can't have everything in this world!\n\nHowever when Vista comes out next year, IE7 will take my cake as the best browser, the betas look great.

Switch to Firefox! It's much better and safer than IE.

I use both. But I like Firefox better. It seems to run better. no pop-ups, easy to clear history & cookies. I just like it allot better. You should try it for your self and see. I think Mozzilla Firefox has Microsoft going crazy.

Firefox is a more secure browser due to it doesn't have as many bells and whistles as IE. The more features you have, the more areas that can be exploited. Plus, hackers have always loved messing with microsoft. Sometimes you might have to use IE, due to a banks website might not support Firefox, in that case, just open up your IE browser. You may want to consider downloading Spyware Blaster by Javacool. It will help keep both your IE and Firefox browser more secure.

I have both..... but I like Firefox because of the TABS. They are the best!\n\nI still use Explorer because a lot of things will not work in firefox yet.

as far as i can remember, the first time you install Firefox, it would ask you if you like to import your bookmarks in IE. \n\nYou can also import IE bookmarks after Firefox is installed.\n\nregarding speed improvement, it really depends on your ISP but i firmly believe that Firefox has a better rendering engine so it would improve speed but not very significant. Other advantage is security, IE6 security is very weak compared to Firefox. Add-ons or extensions in Firefox is also amazing.\n\nI really recommend Firefox over IE6, don't know about IE7 since I never used IE for a while :D

Absolutely!\n\nI use IE for general browsing and have Firefox for other things like bank accounts and such.  And have both running at the same time without any problems.\n\nWindows, however will want you to set a default.  For example, when you click a link which one do you want to come up?

What sort of question is this? Firefox2 is better in every possible aspect!!\n\nIt is like trying to compare a Ferrari to a Lada..
