Firefox is just a version of Mozilla... http://www.mozilla.com

It blocks popups and is pretty much resistant to adware. Some sites I simply have to use IE for, but found that the Yahoo toolbar is good at blocking popups and most of that unwanted crap, but I still run Ad-Aware a couple times a week.

Yep, made the official switch to Firefox a couple months ago.

The Google Toolbar for IE is also very good at blocking pop-ups plus it has a lot of other usefull features.

Opera's java ability sucks more than Mozilla's.

Allan keep me out of the fantasies in your head.

Opera doesn't handle Java very well, but it is a quick browser. In Linux, the Java capabilities are at least easy enough to modify. You winblows homos are typically SOL But get used to it while you don't have source to modify.

Plain and simple IE blows because its from microsoft and Firefox is completly better in every way I have seen.. To me the best feature is that is saves everything and cuts down on your loading time..

I was just reading an Sep 04 article in Wired magazine, Microsofts' security program manager himself uses Firefox.And he also states IE won't be secure for possibly 8 more years.
