andrewduckerThe Mozilla stand-alone browser has been rebranded as FireFox. I downloaded it, used the new installer, added in the must-have extension "Tabbed Browser Preferences" and had it up and running in about 30 seconds. Another two minutes to get Shockwave and Flash installed and I was able to browse about 99% of the internet.
If you're not using it and you're fed up with the ridiculous popups, adverts, crashes and general annoyances that come with Internet Explorer then you should bloody well be downloading it here.
If you're still not sure then check out the 13 Reasons to use Firefox page.
Oh, and there's an "open in IE" extension that I use about once a week for pages that really don't want to work in FireFox. Right-click on the background and select open in IE and there it is. I always feel dirty afterwards tho.
