i love the internet explorer 6 for my windows xp sp2, it is the best browser and it contains a pop-up blocker with it

and i can't wait for IE7 (not beta1), i think it will be the best internet browser ever

My preffered browser is firefox, it has soo many more features than IE, such as tabbed browsing, i use it all the time and stops me from having to have multiple windows open, and it is far easier to use and customise than IE

Its only faster and safer because there is not alot of people that use it yet. I mean that a big majority still use IE, and if FireFox gets more popular there will be hackers stealing info just like on IE.

Which is why Friefox is the ultimately better choice. M$ will never bundle there OS's with something like Firefox, they are bandwagining IE to the end from the looks of it. And as long as M$ and IE are bundled, then those 2 will get the most of the hackers/malware. So get Firefox or Opera, and be happy

This is similar to Windows vs. Linux or Windows vs. Macs, viruses are targeted for Windows-based platforms, seeing as so many more people use Windows.
