I have both web browsers installed.
True story; my dog plopped her butt on the power strip and shut everything down that I was working on, my phone, printer, lights, Computer, man was I furious!!
Luckily for me, I was using FireFox at that time, and when I rebooted my computer, FireFox restored the session I was working on. Internet Explorer ask if you want to save the pages IF you have more than one tab opened.
Which do you prefer, highly customizable FireFox or IE7?

firefox 2.0 should have this automatically, but if it doesn't there is an extension which I prefer to use is tab mix plus. make sure that it is compatible. Don't forget to use the All-in-one sidebar if you haven't got it already.
This extension rocks!!
I rate it 5/5

Hi phatkat, I like mozilla firefox because it is much secured when compared to internet explorer. It has an advanced security feature which makes it safe to use. I like also the add-ons, plug-ins, and extensions of mozilla, thus making it more useful. However, I also used IE because there are some websites that cannot be opened by mozilla, so I used it rarely.
Have a nice day and God speed!

I loved internet explorer 7. As i was a brand loyal. But the i realized that it was slower than Firefox and then there are many other features in it, like skins and different kind of add ons. So now i have switched to Firefox and am happy to use it.

obviously firefox!!!!!!!!!! ie is too rubbish to be compared with firefox... in fact if u r keen 2 make comparisons, then opera would come da closest to firefox.
http://www.opera.com/
its great nd all, bt u don't get add-ons or even toolbars with opera, jst rubbish widgets.
i will give firefox a 9.5/10 and opera 8.5/10. ie gets a 7 from me.
