What would I ever do without Firefox? Seriously, if I had to rely on
Internet Explorer (any version) I simply wouldn't! Despite the numerous exploits designed specifically for IE, its the lack of functionality and very few (even less useful)
plug-ins that makes
Microsoft's browser irritating and time-consuming. Fortunately, their are alternatives, namely Firefox,
Safari, and
Opera. Of these, Firefox is the most functional and widely accepted on many websites (few sites still require
Internet Explorer to render properly).
By itself,
Firefox 3 (the latest version as of June 17, 2008) looks just like any other browser, but when you install
add-ons, it becomes a custom tailored, feature rich Internet tool that eases repetitive tasks, saves time, back-ups and stores online your bookmarks, saves and restores Sessions for later retrieval or recovery from a system crash, and much, much more.
