The new ver 1.5 of Firefox seems to be faster and a bit cleaner. its still slower than IE... I use it at home.. Firefox has had its own major security holes, that have been patched too. You just don't hear much about them, cause Firefox is sitll a minority.
IE had some nasty holes, which were patched, but lots of people didn't actually patch them.. Since the majority of users are IE users, and the tons of them were running unpatched vers, alot of people got caught in various exploits, usually doing something stupid.
IOW, IE isn't as bad as people think it is. Especially with the latest updates.
Once IE brings out new window AND tabbed browsing functionaily like how FireFox provides, I'm switching back.
