Firefox 2 is by far the best web browser alternative for anyone using Windows XP or Vista for that matter.

While I use a mac and generally use Safari which I believe is by far the best web browser in the world, I also use Firefox for many reasons as all web browsers act slightly different depending on which website you are visiting.

For Windows users though… It’s simply not even close. If you are tired of ridiculous internet explorer pop-ups, the ridiculous cancel or allow buttons that constantly pop-up, active x control problems, security issues or just simply you want a more streamlined web experience then Firefox should be your web browser.

Why anyone still uses internet explorer is beyond me? There’s simply no reason to as millions of others have already figured out.

Here are just a few reasons why you should be using Firefox instead of internet explorer…

1. Stay secure on the web
