 Its a browser just like INternet explorer.

Some say its better than IE, but i have it and plainly see no difference.

Its also free and you can download it at their official site and check it out.

 Firefox is a browser. It is much better than IE. (Internet Explorer).

It has:
tabbed browsing
better security
Add on mods and stuff
A good pop up blocker.



It is a free download, witch you can get it here:

Edit: Dang, you beet me too it.

 I used IE then I switched to Firefox, when I got some trouble with IE. It had something to do with ActiveX controls and some other stuff if I remember corrrectly. So far, Firefox has always worked fine. It's a nice broswer really, even without downloading additional plugs in, it's really a nice one. :)

 make sure you look through the plugins and extensions pages for some extra features you can add to your firefox browser.

ieview, for example, allows you to right click on any link and choose to view it on IE.
