If you're using Firefox, you should already be using a bunch of security addons.
Geeks can go on and on about how Chrome is better than IE or FF or pick whatever browser comparison you wish. Pretty much all the major browsers will do what 99% of people need them to do almost interchangeably until we get into extensions which aren't as big of a deal I think as they use to be I think.
In related FF news, the new FF (ver. 14) for Android seems pretty slick.
They were the same company that said Androids (Linux) gets viruses and that they wanted all users to purchase their AV plugin for $15 immediately to avoid the threat.^ What the bird said. Symantec has a vested interest in making gullible people paranoid enough to give them money.
IE9 is where its at. IE haters are getting old.
This. The Linux-FOSS lovers are blinded by the froth foaming from their mouths onto their faces.
Sure I'm a FOSS lover. But I am also a web developer and programmer. So I think my professional opinion weighs a little more than the common user. IE9 is just okay, but it will never match the reliability, stability, and compatibility that every other major browser has. I'm not blinded by anything other than the cold hard truth. Spend a day in my shoes and then tell me IE is still a valid web browser in today's world.

I don't mean to argue with you as I really enjoy the benefits of open source and GPL'ed software, but I haven't had any issues with IE8 or 9 being reliable or stable.
Internet Explorer has the longest legacy as a browser. No other browser has managed to endure the test of time and the trial by fire subjected to it and survive.
Firefox is a direct extension of Netscape which itself a derivative of the first real browser Mosaic. It currently holds the longest run for browser technology. IE is fairly new to the game in terms of Firefox's linage. Check your User-Agent string for the famous Mozilla compatibility line.
Long term Netscape user here. Was my first browser and I stuck around. Seamonkey is about the closest you can get to the original experience.

I doubt it shared any code in common with Netscape and there was a break in development between the time AOL bought and killed it and the time that Firefix showed up. Were any of the original developers involved or did they simply reuse a common name like Freespace did with Descent to get some name recognition to springboard adoption?
I don't know why it's so hard for Microsoft to keep up with the times, but I'm really getting sick of having to put IE9 into "compatibility mode" in order to make basic websites appear correctly, not counting the endless stream of back-end errors.
Netscape is not provably Firefox.
I'm pretty sure the same is true for Internet Exploder, but at least it hasn't changed hands since Microsoft reused Spyglass Mosiac, which, if we're going to split hairs, is older than Netscape anyway.
Not splitting hairs either, but the developer for Mosaic, which outdated spyglass, created Netscape and in turn Mozilla was born. And Netscape > 6 is Firefox with proprietary extensions built onto it. These are simply facts, I'm not making conjecture here.
Wait really? What happened to Netscape after AOL bought it in 1998? I thought they horribly murdered it by throwing it uselessly at the awesomeness of IE3 and 4.
Can't remember the last time I had to do that and the ironic thing about that is that a lot of those problems were cause by IE becoming more standards compliant. I've been using IE 9 daily since the first beta came out and it's been a solid browser for me. Spending more time in IE 10 in Windows 8 and it's even better and the touch browsing is fantastic. IE 10 running on a Core i5 tablet, just blows away browsing on an ARM machine.
I sure hope IE10 keeps on improving, it's not like I enjoy hating a web browser.

I am a developer myself, thanks... I still hold my opinion.
So anyone else using Chromium (not Chrome)? Is it a safe alternative to FF?
For web browsing without extensions and plug-ins, which I think are becoming less important overall
The new FF for Android may win be back over Dolphin, I'm still debating and evaluating.Yeah, I'm liking it a lot.
Same here, I remember using Mosaic and Netscape back in the mid-'90s.Firefox is a direct extension of Netscape which itself a derivative of the first real browser Mosaic.

Disagree. Knowledge about plugins and extensions is becoming more important than ever now that the primary method of malware infection is through web based exploits targeting your browser its extensions.
Yeah, true that IE1 through IE9 has been under the same ownership the whole time, unlike the transition of Mosaic to Mozilla.It'd be really neat if it did share some common code. At least it's been owned by the holy Microsoft the entire time though.

As for IE9, I was always an IE hater myself but I did try it and have to say they finally got it right this time. They even fixed the PNG rendering issue.
