Firefox is Made of Win

[catsplay]

I'm finally breaking down and switching to Firefox. I'm sick of the IE - the slow behemoth.

I need to find out other cool stuff Firefox can do. I know you can add extensions or something.

That is all.

** Update: How do I set Firefox as my default browser? For example, if I click a link from Outlook, it is still launching Internet Explorer.

I've yet to figure out what's so bad about IE. I know everyone complains about it in a general way but no one mentions any details, and it works just fine for me.

Thank you.

Also, Firefox has this little nifty tool called adblock that blocks ads. Everywhere.

Pop-ups or those ads that are integrated in a website?

Firefox itself blocks pop-ups automatically and then you may allow pop-ups for certain sites. Adblock deals with integrated ads.

So far I've relied on Google's pop-up-blocker. It works quite well.

I'll have to see. Maybe sometime I'll give Firefox a try. I suppose I'm just not desperate eniugh. :)
