I am definitely using Firefox for my new computer ^_^

Can't use FF on here, though, because the rest of my family wants to stick to IE :P

I forced my family to use firefox when I installed it on dads (the family) pc.. I already have it on mine too.

I'm forcing my mates to use it too via the same method when they bring their pc round with problems and viruses :)

I loe firefox, I got my moms laptop on it, and she seems happy with it.

Ember, why did you link to another forum with a link to the actual story? Why not just link directly to the place with the tip?

Opera renders fast already, I used to swear by it until I got plugins for firefox and I didn't need opera anymore.

Firefox is free too.

/me smells a chis to come defind opera.

I also used to use Opera earlier, but then I discovered Firefox, and it's better, and Open-Source :D

i really like firefox (just little things like tabs, and the search feature), but on dial-up it seems to run a lot slower than ie. I've tried opera, netscape, mozilla, avant, and all sorts of crap, but still ie seems quickest for me.

but when brband comes in march is firefox for me!

You can't officially uninstall IE. You can remove it, but it's sketchy and I wouldn't recommend it. Plus it's required for Windows Updates as you have to run the site through IE.

Firefox owns.

It's under add/remove programs, I guess I won't remove it then.
