What I like about Firefox....
being able to download all the themes and extensions I could possibly want. Your firefox browser can be customized anyway you like.
What I don't like about Firefox....
Unlike Opera 9, Firefox failed the Acid2 test, which means it does not fully support the standards by the W3C Organization.
Bottom Line....
Firefox is a great browser. It's secure, fast and reliable. Our favorite feature of Firefox is its ability to be completely customized with various themes, add ons and extensions. There's an add on for everyone with over 1000 on the Firefox website. We feel Opera is a little more advanced in some features, but Firefox does have some stronger points and is most definetly worth a look, especially if your'e looking for a change from Internet Explorer. It's FREE. Download it today!
