Default Does anybody run Firefox?

I have thought about trying it and was wondering if anybody here uses it and how they liked it.

I use it for everything, works great.
There is only a few sites that it doesn't play well with, so then I just switch back to IE for them.

When I used IE all the time, I noticed I got a lot of spyware crap. After running Firefox strictly I have almost none what so ever.

I've been using it for a while and love it. I also use the Mozilla Thunderbird for email but it takes some getting used to.

I've been using Netscape for a while now and didn't see much difference between it and Firefox. If I didn't use Netscape though I would be using Firefox since I hate IE.

Been using for a while now and like it alot. The tabbed browsing is cool and you can put your favorite bookmarks up there in the toolbar. The RSS feeds are nice too.

I've been running Firefox since it came out. I ran Mozilla before FF came out, although I can't remember what the specific version of it was called. Kinda the forefather to FF. All the same features, just not as simplified or as fast. I'll never use IE again if I can help it.

You can get it free HERE

Also, all you guys keep an eye out for version 2. It's in Beta testing now, hopefully it will hit pretty soon.
