I use IE at work (as I have to) and Firefox at home. Prefer using Firefox.

Firefox because it is a better program. Sadly not as widely supported as IE (for obvious reasons)

Sorry - got enough on my plate fighting the evils of supermarkets without having to take on Microsoft as well!!!

Seriously though, if you need to switch browsers to look at a web page then there is something wrong with your browser!

If you want to offer an alternative to IE it MUST be able to see and read everythin IE can, wether you like it or not.

I have used Fire fox (not a lot I will admit) and while i didn't find the experiance unpleasent neither was i left with a Wow feeling.

So IE for me. For now at least.

It amuses me somewhat that IT Departments in companies limit their staff to IE, when IE has a crap load more security flaws than FireFox. I don't get a wow factor from using FireFox its an internet browser, but its more secure and has less sodding bugs.

The annoying thing is that certain tags in HTML etc do slightly different things in Firefox and IE
