#1 I've tried Firefox and had problems. For now I'll stick with Netscape (7.X). IE, no frigging way

#2 I'm looking forward to this. I've used FireFox happily for over a year now - some occassional formatting glitches but mostly excellent. I used to use Opera, but the last upgrade Ithat I tried) barely ran and kept locking up (I'm on XP), so I punted. IE? that's for my wife and kids.

#3 I've been IE free since before the 1.0 release of Firefox. Never looked back.

#6 Like Fred, I have certain contacts that only work with IE, and they happen to be the only game in town for their products.

You may be amused to note that I still use Communicator 4.x to download files. It's faster than IE 6 and much more so than FF 1.x.
