I have always prefured to use Mozilla Firefox as opposed to Internet Explorer simply because it allow a lot less crap to be automatically installed to the computer. Does anyone know how Internet Explorer 7 is compaired to firefox?

and it is still full of bugs ... here's a page listing 38 bugs in IE7 (and counting :-). if the demonstration links don't open in a pop up, then right click and open in new tab.

Well about browser, my own list from the top to flop: 1. Opera 2. Firefox or Mac's Safari (both are pretty on par) 3. IE 7 4. Konqueror (actually in my opinion, it is too slow but it is much safer than IE 6) 5. IE 6
