1) Images should load faster in firefox because they are loaded AS they redner, instead of after
2) There should be a google search bar in the top, right corner of Firefox.
3) Firefox own3d IE :P

I definitely prefer mozilla firefox, I think its more user friendly, and I like to keep my toolbar tidy, so the tabs are great for me.. i'm obsessed with tidiness in my pc.. its spotless :p lol...

as blade sed, the google bar is right of the address bar, but that only does searches... if you want new skins, go to Tools > Themes, and the rest is pretty self explanitary... I say get a skin :p it looks nicer that way :)

I like IE.

I cant say that FF isnt good.
Here's a list of things that i dont like on FF...
1) Takes time to open (maybe because i have many extensions?)
2) There might be some layout problems with some websites
3) When i click the wheel button, the wheel is kinda strange... Hard to explain...
4) The textbox cursor is kinda odd...
5) Not all the ActiveX controls will work on it... For example: Rich Text Box

But its a nice browser...

If you like IE, you might want Avant Browser.
It is an IE-based browser with tons of additional features.
So it has many same features with FF if it doesn't have more features.

New Beta:
AB v10.0 beta 010:

I don't start a new browser war thread. I just give a suggestion to Mike2 (and other IE user, but don't wanna use FF).

I do admit that IE has many security holes.

Btw, how to set URL alias, clear records (temp internet files, cookies, etc..), save the last page when closing the browser, make the tabs on the bottom, and get a full screen feature in FF?
I think those features that make Avant better than FF :-/
