You know what says something: 1744 votes on download.com give 96% of postitive feedback for firefox.


I was not referring to myself imbecile, I was referring to people like my parents (who have tried Firefox and hate it).  They may not know much about PC's but they know enough.  download.com while being useful is not a definitive answer to the question of which is best.  it comes down to PERSONAL PREFERENCE!  A concept you seem to lack.  90% of those 94% yanks that use IE over any other browser are most likely happy with it.

As for that security test, Windows XP SP2 with www.avantbrowser.com
