It all depends on you. If you're happy with IE, stick with IE. If you're curious as to what the hype's all about, get Firefox. I haven't looked back since I switched :)

Yeah, I don't like it when people say "OMFG FIREFOX IS TEH UBER SECURE!!!1!!11" or something similar :dodgy:. FF is no more or less secure then IE is, it's just that IE is by far the more popular browser so many more attacks are directed towards it. But now that Firefox has picked up a lot of steam, there'll be more and more attacks towards FF, as well as spyware.

Personally, I use it for the extensions. You can do almost anything you want with them, and I can't surf without it now. Same with tabbed browsing (Y)(Y)

I use Firefox and I have noticed that spybot sometimes detects "Backweb lite", which isn't good. It slows down my mouse.

Edit:

Backweb Lite is a known adware installed by Logitech, or Kodak.
So it's unrelated with Firefox.

My advice is, check your system if you have installed something probably mentioned in the link above.

Ahh, Okay. That'll be my brothers new camera.

Edit: just a side note, using a less-attacked browser doesn't mean you are free from spyware, adware or viruses. It is all down to how you manage your computer :)
