Mozilla is the only way to fly. Night and day compared to IE. I had a fling that was a network systems administrator for Sherwin Williams and she turned me on to Mozilla amongst other turn ons

I run IE. It works for what I need it for and that's all I care about. Just like my dell. It might not be the greatest out there but it's been doing me right for the past 2 years and that's all that matters.

I've never had stability issues at all with Mozilla... With IE I had them all the time!

Tabbed browsing is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

That is one of the coolest features there is! I usually don't need anymore than three tabs, but it just keeps things so much neater.

Iker does have a point about the media, but that is only because Mozilla is more complex and requires the user to define the operating parameters. Once he figures them out he'll be set.

Another Mozilla user here. I think it's a lot better than IE, and much more secure. Between Firefox (browser), Thunderbird (email), and ZoneLabs Security Suite, I have a lot less worries about garbage getting on my computer. Haven't had any problems with various media, so far anyway.

I have found Opera to be faster and much more stable than Firefox, especially under Linux.

The new IE 7 has tabbed browsing. I switch back and forth between Mozilla and IE depending on what I'm doing. But like Chrisreyn, only IE at work. Both have their good and bad points.
