What do you know about the Firefox browser?
- Rob C., [removed]@email.com
Firefox is a great new browser from
Mozilla.org, the people behind Netscape. It's become very
popular, with over 80 million people currently using it. It's
picking up where Netscape has left off, as AOL won't be developing
new versions of Netscape any more. Firefox is extremely spyware
resistant, offers the great tabbed browsing feature just like
Netscape (allowing you to have multiple sites open in the same
window) and also integrates Google search right into the toolbar.
It is extremely customizable, allowing small, fast installations
or a robust group of add-on features. It also has a wide selections
of themes that you can download to update the look and feel
of the browser.
