The only website I use IE for is the windows update. A big ho-hum is the reception IE 7 deserves.

You're an idiot. FireFox is full of bugs, just wait another year..better hope it doesn't get too popular, or you'll see a barrage of security attacks on it just like MS has faced.

You're both idiots, haven't you ever heard of Squeegee! It's only the best web browser available and is as secure as IE. Get with the program and download it now!

I use FireFox full time - if I need to use IE to view a site, there's a plugin for FireFox that allows me to open a tab using the IE engine. In fact, with this plugin, a user can already use IE with Tab Browsing, which is probably the only improvement for IE worth getting it for.

If you want to talk about bugs, IE 7 is probably full of them. FireFox is much more stable, but yes - once more people use FireFox, more and more viruses will be made to destabilize it. That's just the way the game is played.

There's no need to call names guys...
Here's the deal:
Use IE for: Windows Updates
Use other browsers (best Firefox) for: Everything else.

Tell Microsoft to get its act together.

Maxthon is just a wrapper for IE. Same with Avant browser, etc. Nice features, but still wrapped around Microcrapware.

Opera sux, Safari sux, yadda, yadda.

Firefox pwns joo 4ll. Get IE tab, and only use IE for windows update.

End of story. :)
