theres not much differnce bewteen firefox and internet explorer and i think internet explorere is more stable cause you look at how many times firefox has new updated versions of it all the time and internet explorere doesnt just once in awhile. now which one is more stable and secure

(Devil's advocate: )You could look at it the other way and say the Firefox is staying current... and keeping their browser more up-to-date and secure than IE.

Anyway, I use IE and will not change. I leave the security to my hardware and software firewall.. my anti-virus and ad/spy/malware software, not my browser...
