It is an alternative to Microsoft's Internet Explorer.

It is far better - has less security probs and is simple to install. It is totally free to download and it stops all those annoying pop ups and ads from sex sites!!!

Just download it - install and away to go - it asks you if you want to import all your favourites and cookies etc - just say yes!

Ive been using firefox for a couple of months, would certainly recoment it over IE.

Mozzilla also do an e-mail client, Mozilla Thunderbird which im using instead of outlook express aswell.

The ad blocker is great. No pop-ups and you can download a banner add blocker extension.

Exactly - forget I have said any of this - Firefox is a load of crap and nobody should ever use it because Codprawn doesn't have a clue what he's on about!!!
