I Think that people here prefer Mozilla because it isnt runned by microsoft and Plus The Most important reason that IE seems better is because It isnt free! Free programs usually have spyware, Not that mozilla firefox does.
Anyways, Its like macs vs pcs, Macs will never take over pcs, Sadly, But I wish they would
And Mozilla will never take over Internet explorers for these reasons
1.Internet Explorer comes on a brand new computer (Firefox doesnt and NEVER WILL)
2.More people Know about internet explorer then mozilla.
3.The mac version of IE Has less bugs then the firefox mac version
4. Everyone is entitled there own opinion
the features of firefox are nice, But In the end, There is more you can do on IE then firefox
again you failed to even go agaist my argument. I said go to some heavy Windows PC site where there are people who know there stuff. Hell you will find a lot of mac haters there but yet they like firefox over IE. Before you ride off these blind Maccy as MS haters go check out those sites. Also I not among the blind maccy if you noticed I tend pick at the flaws. Go check out a heavy end PC site and then ask the same question here. Your answer will be Firefox or Oprea in general. You are not going to see many IE post. Hell ask them what browser they see and again you will see Firefox Oprea and IE rounding out the top 3. heck go to some gaming forums and ask the question and look at you answer you will get. Firefox yet it again.
Firefox is still a pretty new browser and it is spreading like wild fire. I first heard of it last spring when it was still a pretty new beta and it was recomend I switch. I got it a few months later when it went to 9.1 and I have never looked back. Now I see more and more computer going over to firefox and the more computer smart people are using it.
IE is a broken web browser. Those IE only sites are made by the lazy and poor web master who are consider crappy because they dont bother making there site for a large chunk of the market. Laslty IE does not work with the current web standards out there.
But you will find this instersting. Of the more educated people ;windows side you will find that it a higher % of them use a Netscaped bases broswer over an IE one. Yes IE is still the larger % base but then again most people are idoits who know nouthing and I get to speed a large chunk of time cleaning up there computers and fixing them. Pain in the rear. Every 2-3 months I come home from collage and I get to spend the first few hours or after I get home cleaning up the home computer and getting everything working on it again. It not fun but it still uses IE and sadly it not going to switch over to firefox because my mom does not want to change and she is idoit when it comes to computers and she know it.
As for the bugs considing firefox is still a BETA program it is forgiveble. It going 1.0 by the end of the year so most of bother rsome bugs will be gone.
Oh and by the way there is a lot more that you can do with Firefox than IE. Out of the box Firefox is about on the same leval as IE but once you get the common extentions that most people will tell you to get you find that it is in fact a much more powerful browswer and you can keep adding on from there.
So before you say it all MS haters go check some gaming forums or costume PC forums and see what they say.
edit: Now look at the results from that poll. And if you noticed that is from a pretty much a PC only site. IE is blown out of the water by firefox.
