i find ff so much more user-friendly. i still use ie however for some sites whose stupid designers used microsoft-only, non-w3c coding.

I like Firefox for tabbed browsing. Last time when I use IE so many browser window running at the same time then very easy to lag and my whole system slows down.
If security wise I don't see much of a difference. I long time didn't kana virus attack already. IE i use it only for microsoft update and other sites that FF got some problem loading.

IE features:

- huge security hole
- not W3C compliant
- no tabbed browsing...:sleep3:
- no RSS
- no PNG support, u will see an ugly grey bar on my sigs below if u use IE...


Firefox features:

- the opposite of all stated above

haven't used it for a while now, not so sure about its performance but read a lot of good words & hopes for this browser...


Opera 9 is going to be the 2nd browser to pass Acid2 test.
Safari 2.0.2 was the 1st major browser to pass. Firefox 1.5 still fails. IE7 still hopeless...

another great news is Opera is goin to be the browser in the sky...
