I am using Firefox at this moment, but am not sure what the big difference is. Can someone explain this to me?

There are some graphical differences, but other than that, what is the big deal?

I've been using Mozilla for about 6 months or so, and ive never had any problems with it. I certainly like it more than IE.

Tommy: IE has some major security flaws, and Firefox doesn't have any problems with security, and also it's plugins are a lot better.

With firefox you get tabbed browsing as well, which you don't get with IE. I also like the extensions and the themes that firefox has as well.

I found this, but I'm not sure if it is what you wanted.

FlashGot is an extension that is compatible with just about any download manager you currently use.

FoxyTunes allows you to control your MP3 player or music player through the browser.

ImageZoom gives you control of images displayed on the screen...

http://www.bugmenot.com is a handy little plugin.

I still like Netscape 7.2 better, although bookmarking is nicer in FF.

thanks guys...I have been using Firefox today and it seems Ok, but admittedly a bit slower than IE.

I have also had problems with some plugins not being available or able to open some links.

Maybe it is just me?

I have noticed this problem too. I also have some issues with mouse rollover effects? Images aren't showing up when they should be?
I don't know. Mozzilla does not seem so much faster. The only benefit I see is the tab feature and cool themes. I may just switch back to IE.
