I figure that IE will remain in the top spot as far as marketshare goes for a long time, as Firefox and a plethora of third-party browsers slowly chip away at it.

I'd probably keep using Firefox even if a newer version of IE was "better", because I use Linux much more than Windows. Also, I like the idea behind it...Instead of ditching it, I'd try to help with bug/exploit reports, suggestions, and so on. For the time being, it doesn't seem to be in any danger of that, though.

Well I would say Firefox rocks until the fact that Opera is faster and more customisable and also that the latest v. of firefox, 1.5, has messed up my account settings - had to recreate them from scratch!

I'll stick with my Firefox, IE lost it's chance, it simply stopped updating on us, and better things came along. Besides, Firefox has a great community and developers who provide awesome extensions and skins, all for free. Very Happy

Firefox is the best browser out there in my opinion and it must be shared by many many others as well. There have been well over 100 million downloads and it doesn't seem to be stopping. I also have safari and netscape, but I only use them for development testing. The only m$ software I have installed is a plug-in for media player. If you don't have firefox, get it!

4 years since Microsoft refreshed its venerable Internet Explorer browser.

Features:
1) Tabbed browsing
2) Built-in RSS (RSS icon lighting up whenever a page has subscription content available won't be available until the second beta ->expected later in 2005).
--two features that are currently available in Netscape 8, Mozilla Firefox, and Apple Safari.
3) Antiphishing technology (Not part of the current IE 7 beta for Windows Vista but is included in beta 1 of IE 7 for XP).
4) Improve printing capabilities within IE 7 for XP - Pages will be reduced to fit the printed page.

Conditions: Only those running Windows XP SP2 will be able to run the latest version of IE.

Adjustment:
Refresh button, along with many other familiar buttons - Microsoft reduced and therefore vastly simplified the IE 7 toolbar area; the address bar is locked to the top of the browser window so that spyware can't replace it with a look-alike toolbar. Internet Explorer 7 also does away with many redundancies between menus and buttons.

It´s certain but I prefer the mozilla firefor browser.

I've got firefox, but I prefer Opera. It's much easier for me to use, and altough firefox has extensions etc., there's nothing I need that opera doesn't have - mouse gestures and email proggy are all I need. And firefox doesn't have email Wink

Besides, opera looks better and has better customization than firefox (if you were to ask me).
