Do you Mozilla?

I know the new version of Mozilla Firefox released last week. Do any of you guys use Firefox instead of Internet Explorer? It is supposed to be much faster, more reliable, and have much stronger security than IE. The open development for browser apps is also very appealing.

Just got the new Firefox 3.1. Been using Firefox 2 for a while now and I like it much better than explorer. Yes it's faster and seems more reliable and user friendly. FYI there's already a pretty good thread going on the Firefox 3 topic. Anyone using firefox 3 yet?

Yes, Firefox rulez! Some sites don't work with it, so every once in a while I have to go back to IE, but Firefox is great.

Pick up the IE plugin for Firefox, it helped me out alot for pages that didn't look right in Firefox. When you install it in Firefox, you can click the lil firefox logo in bottom right corner and everything shows up like it would in IE. Pretty neat.

I'd use about anything but IE. have used Firefox for the last 2-3 years. I also like Opera, although compatibility issues push me mostly to Firefox.
