I've just made the transition to Firefox because one of my IE6s has been infected with clicksearchclick. I heard it's safer. I like it and I'll add a skin. Opinions?

Mozilla Firefox is better, in my opinion. It's a bit safer in that it blocks most pop-ups and it protects a little better from spyware than Internet Explorer does. Did I mention Tab Browsing? If you want to look at multiple sites, or multiple sections of a site, at once, just move the mouse pointer over a link, right-click and select "Open Link in New Tab." It will open a tab in the browser, which will be whatever site that link leads to. You don't have to open a ton of new windows.
Try it.

Hello! The first post of the thread was made in Firefox! And Thunderbird goes very well with it. Did you ever experience the clicksearchclick thing?

Did you ever experience the clicksearchclick thing? Is it Adware? If so, you can get rid of it using various spyware removers. I use Firefox. Sure, it isn't as holy or perfect as people like to make it out to be (especially since the browser has its own fanboys. "USSE FIREF0X U N00B!!!11"), but I find it usable. That itself stands it beyond the many "IE alternatives" that people have thrown out to stop the "evil Bill Gates." I'd say that it is even faster than IE.

It's worse than adware and it's very hard to remove.

I tried Firefox once, but it worked more slowly than Explorer.
