You might have heard of Mozilla Foundation's internet browser, and that it is a good web browser. Well, it is. I use Firefox because I love the control, the tabbed browsing, pop-up blocker, customization features, and the fact that it is standards compliant.
Some people say, "Who cares if it is standards compliant? What does that mean?" It means that developers can design web sites and know how it will appear in the web browsers and not have to make tweaks to the code to cater to all the different web browsers. Think of the plumbing in your house. You rely on the manufacturers to create plumbing parts according to standards, otherwise, you'll never know if the pipes that you are buying will fit into your house.
So, I recommend that you download a copy of Mozilla Firefox 1.0 and give it a try. It is free, of course. www.mozilla.org
