I've used both and I find Firefox much better than IE.

I've been using Firefox for a year now. From my own experience, Firefox does take more memory than IE, but it's safer and it never crashed.

IE can be a virus carrier. Firefox is not. Firefox doesn't secretly save all your browsing data including your passwords in a file called index.dat file which you can't delete. Firefox's 'Clear Private Data' option is straight forward.

Plus you get lots and lots of themes and extensions with Firefox. Check them out here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox...

An important advantage with IE is that it displays ASP pages (pages that end with the file name extension .asp or .aspx) properly. Other browsers don't. But that's Microsoft's intention. You may want to use IE in certain situations, for which you use the Firefox extension "IETab" which shows web pages in IE, but in a tab inside Firefox.

Opera is a great browser, too, but I don't know why it can't handle Gmail!

Are you kidding me, Jtull? IE is the whole reason you have spelling problems.

...Besides, I get viruses/spyware so easily from using IE. That kind of stuff is nearly nonexistent in Firefox or Opera.

Really? I was under the impression that it doesn't have spell check, has many security holes, and runs slower than either Firefox or Opera.

Firefox all the way! IE always had the problem of just closing randomly.
Also IE7 got the tab funtion from FF which probably got the tab function from Opera.
