May 22, 200718 yr I'm always switching between IE7 and firefox. I don't really have a favorite; I like the plugins that firefox has and some websites only work properly with IE.
May 22, 200718 yr I use IE 6, with an overlay called Irider. I need to upgrade to any service pack in XP Pro to install IE7.
May 22, 200718 yr After my IE got hijacked and Firefox (even before removing the hijack) wasn't, I started using Firefox. The only time I use IE is when MSN Messenger tosses me there to check my mail.
May 22, 200718 yr IE6 for some reason when i tried to upgrade to IE7 my PC went balistic, so i am scared right now to change it again
May 22, 200718 yr Firefox, but if I could use Camino on my windows machine I would. I use IE7 for somethings like Yahoo's Launch cast radio.
May 22, 200718 yr I use firefox. I have it set up on my girlfriends computer and she doesn't know the difference. I have it on my laptop too that runs linux. I don't want to buy another copy of windows right now just for my laptop because all I use it for is checking email and the internet when I am out of town. It is nice knowing that even on my laptop I can run the same browser as my desktop at home even though it is windows. I also use open office for everything too, my desktop and laptop. My girlfriend has Microsoft Office on her computer though because she is more comfortable with it and uses it at work too.
May 22, 200718 yr FF. I only use IE when I absolutely have to. FF has soooo many nice add-ons i.e. Firebug to help develop/troubleshoot websites, etc
May 22, 200718 yr Author IE6 for some reason when i tried to upgrade to IE7 my PC went balistic, so i am scared right now to change it again You must have Windows XP Service Pack 2 installed for IE to work.
May 22, 200718 yr gotta go with firefox on this one, especially with the IE-built-in-engine switch add-on they have. lets me open up tabs of IE-pages and firefox pages in the same window, yet keeps the security/pop-up blocks of firefox
May 22, 200718 yr I used to use Firefox but I cant access a lot of websites without IE7 so I switched back! Then again I am connecting through satelite in the middle east so... maybe thats more the problem!

It let's you switch between FF and IE HTML engines without opening two browsers.
