Firefox. The Winner of the 100 best products of 2005

WEB BROWSER (Free) Let the browser wars begin anew: This open-source program is streamlined, customizable, and just plain better. No wonder it has attracted millions of users in just a few months. Is it merely a coincidence that Microsoft finally plans to give the aging Internet Explorer the major overhaul it has needed for years?

And now that its popular, spyware is affecting it too!!

Yes, but unlike IE, they actually try and fix it in a reasonable amount of time.

Good for FireFox, I say. It's a much better browser than IE and even when IE gets that overhaul, I doubt I'll go back to it. Good Open-Source projects such as FireFox and Openoffice are even better than Microsoft's counterparts, plus they're free!

Damn Firefox is gaining popularity curse you all for using it. Now spy ware will come to this platform as well. I'm off to Lynx I don't think I'll have spy ware problems on that platform <insert sarcasm> don't you think join my in the migration to lynx.

 

[macdude425]

I think you're missing the point. Firefox works, and even though they may try to attack it, it works better than IE, and the holes are fixed rather than papered over.

And it's not nice to curse people for using what they like.
