I think the coolest thing about FireFox and Opera is that you can download themes/skins and change the look of the browser whenever you want. I currently have this really cute cat theme on my browser. The tabbed windows thing takes a little getting used to but I think it's better than having a lot of windows open at the same time and searching through the Windows task bar at the bottom of the screen for the window you want to view. FireFox has a built in pop-up ad blocker which is great because those ads are so annoying.
Just sharing my thoughts about FireFox :)

Internet Explorer does have a ton of sercurity and privacy flaws. In order to minimize the flaws, a user has to visit the Microsfot download web site every so often and download the newest security flaw fixes and updates. It's kind of a pain to do and many people don't realize that they have to check for security fixes and download them. And even though it's a popular browser, IE doesn't offer pop-up ad blocking or spyware blocking. I think the next version of IE should offer these two features as well as better security. Until then, I'll stick with FireFox and the cool features it offers :)
I have downloaded Firefox but I hate it. They said at first it is more secure than IE but I don't know about that. The speed is about the same. I can't go to some places that I can with IE.
Have a nice day !.
You don't have to use the tabbed browsing, either. I don't but I love everything else about Firefox. I haven't used IE in almost 3 years. I don't miss it and wouldn't ever go back. My kids found it hard to get used to Firefox so I keep the old Mozilla on the desktop and they use that. What they like about Mozilla is they can close up all the bars at the top and this gives them more room on runescape. I'm sure there are some skins with Firefox that will allow the same but I just haven't had the time to go hunting for them yet.
